Thomas Jackson
M, b. 1798, d. 13 August 1881
| Anecdote* | | The log house build on Lot 2, Con. 12 of Lanark Township, where their three daughters and three sons were born was replaced by a stone house in 1849. An addition was added in 1875.
In 1832, the Methodists passed a resolution which said in part "We shall build a house of Divine Worship, which shall be called the Jackson Street Methodist Episcopal Church, 12th Concession of Lanark". The memorial to the deed said "ten acres for a Chapel and Burying Ground". In 1858, a school was built on land severed from the same lot. Family, a faith and education are values that have been transmitted to the descendents of Rachel and Thomas Jackson over the generations.
