Diane - It is best to work with what you know and work backwards, especially when you don't have dates. I believe I have found Sarah Jackson in the 1910 census but her husband was not born in Indiana according to this census: 1910 U.S. Census, Henry Village, Henry Co., TN, p.90 R. W. CLOVER, Head, M/W, age 40, Married Once, Married 9 years, PA PA PA Occupation: Overseer of Clay Pit, Rents Home Sarah CLOVER, Wife, F/W, age 35, Married Once, Married 9 years, TN TN TN Robert CLOVER, Son, M/W, age 3, TN TN TN Robert B. CLOVER, Father-in-law, M/W, age 67, Married Once, Married 45 years, TN TN TN Sarah CLOVER, Mother-in-law, F/W, age 70, Married Once, Married 45 years, 5 children/0 alive, TN TN TN Ora JACKSON, Sister-in-law, F/W, age 40, Single, TN TN TN Because Paris in located in Henry Co., you will probably have more success locating Sarah Jackson in her parents' household there in an earlier census before she married Rush Clover. Once you determine the birth year of her father Edmund Jackson, you would follow him back in the census and hopefully locate him with HIS Jackson parents in an even earlier census. After you have more names and birthdates, you might be able to eventually find your family's connection to Andrew Jackson's family. Good luck!

As a kid, I was somewhat interested and looked up Andy and his family. He and Rachael had no kids, so I knew it wasn't a bloodline relationship. That pleased me because I understand that Jackson was a violent and contentious man, and I don't want to be connected to that. I've never been able to find a link, so I'll give the details I know for sure: my great grandfather was Captain Edmund Jackson (the missing link must be with him) I don't know which army he fought with but I think it might have been the Army of Tennessee (confederate) and he married Elizabeth Morton. They lived in or near Paris, and are buried in the Manleyville Cemetary near Paris. However his daughter, (Sarah Cook Jackson) my grandmother married Rush Clover from Indiana. All the Clovers were Union supporters, so either they were open minded or maybe he did fight for the north. I asked questions when I was young but never got answers. Everyone got quiet and uncomfortable and changed the subject. My dad had two cousins, Louise Butler and Alice Jackson. When I was about 13 and visiting Paris, I asked them both about it and they agreed that it was indeed true but didn't want to talk about it. All my family died when I was young and now there's no one left to ask. If any of you have a clue to this, I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know........thanks...Diane Diane Clover-Evans "Roll with the stars and run with Orion...." ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
