I think I missed the first part of this discussion on Jacksons.
I have been searching for the parents of my ggrandfather, David Clemons
Jackson, without success for years. He was born in IN (Co. unknown) Dec.
1822, married my ggrandmother, Hannah Blackburn, in Monroe Co. IN in
April 1844. They lived in Brown Co. in 1850 & near Bean Blossom (Brown
Co.) in 1860, leaving IN before 1870 & settled in DeWitt Co. IL until
ca. 1875. They then moved to NE. One of their daughters was named
Latitia. All but one of Hannah's siblings left IN before 1870, most
settled in MO & KS.
David C. Jackson was reported to have been orphaned at age 2. None of
his siblings (if any) are known, but I have suspected there was a John &
an Alexander because of subsequent family names. I also suspect that his
mother's maiden name was Clemons.
Does any of this sound familiar? Feel free to e-mail direct &/or post.
Thanks.

Hi Paul: Nice to hear from Kiowa Co. KS. The original spelling was Flinner,
and they landed in PA, then went to MD where the parents eventually died.
Several of the children moved to VA. Some then went on to TN, some to IN,
and some to parts West. Please contact me and I'll be happy to share the
info that is available. There are several of us involved in an on-going
exchange of data on a family website on MyFamily.Com. Let me know if you'd

Surname: JACKSON, MILES, PROVIN
-------------------------
This is a continuation of the Joshua Jackson querie - Joshua's father was
Henry Jackson, mother Elizabeth Miles - his siblings were Elisha and Hiram
(all I have found so far)
Henry and Elisha family migrated to Cowlitz Co., WA - Joshua ended up in
MO. Believe Henry's parents were John and Latitia (or Laticia)- am not
sure where John and Latitia died possibly Indiana as I don't see them listed
in WA Cemetery.
Am trying to verify Henry's parents and eventually where the family came
from - States involved are VA, KY, IN, MO, WA, KS
Henry b. 1810 in KY his wife born in KY also
Henry's father John b. abt 1791 in VA -
Latitia b. abt 1790/1 in KY
Elisha and his family/descendants are in Cowlitz Co., WA historical data
- there is also a Jackson Cemetery there.
All my Jackson's were in Brown County until at least 1860 per Census -
believe the family may have started migrating after this period.
Thank you

Yesterday I put out the followig, on several lists, as a 'Beatitude for
Genealogists.' It is not original with me.
'Blessed are the elderly for they remember things we'll never know.'
Today I received this retort, which I think is great.
'Blessed are the young, for they'll never know the things we remember.'
Think about it.
