Turns out that Bernice's husband is related to my Jackson family. He was brother to my great-grandfather Olin Jackson! I actually had Emerson Ernest Jackson as Charles' son, but didn't realize that he was the same Ernest Jackson that I had listed as married to Bernice. My information on the Jackson family matches yours exactly. I never could figure out the connection between Eleazer and the first Edward Jackson that settled in Newton, MA although I, too, had read that Eleazer was descended from him. I have the Thayer information going way back into England, but I didn't realize that Frinda Cook was descended from Francis Cook of the "Mayflower"! Here's more info on the Leveilles: Peter Roderick/Rudolph Smart B:4 Oct 1868 (as Pierre Fourquin dit Leveille)-St. Michel, Yamaska, Quebec and D: 18 Sep 1948 Westmoreland, NH.
