Notes
- I got the information on Earl Jackson from James Jackson, a grandson of George Jerome Jackson, Earl's brother. I did not have this name in my data as a child of James T Jackson, but I found my cousin Marion Mixon had this child in his database. James reports Earl as a twin of Pearl A Jackson, whom I reported from census and family records.
After getting this information, I searched for matching Texas Death records and found a record for "Inf of Jim Jackson" with a death date of 7 February 1919 in Parker County. This matches the parentage and the year of death 1919 reported by James Jackson, and Parker County is the right place.
