These are the facts most of the Jacksons that lived in Baker County and Dougherty are interrelated group. The jackson married into the Tosons family from Baker County then immigrated down the old Pretoria Station ot Road to Oakridge
drive, Washington Street, River road, Marin Luther King drive, and Cotton Ave. We were a very large family especially back the the late 1800's. The average child born to our people were 8 to 16 childen per household. Our trademark we love horses, had alot of Deacons and Rev in the family.My GGgrandfather Tony Jackson use to raise horses for the Fargus and partime for the branch family up the Leary road.
My GGreat Uncle Scarley Jackson remembered the Hawkins,
Adams, Chatmon, Coles, Bragg, Williams people around Baker County from along time ago to dougherty borders.
Our people are said to have some connection to General Andrew Jackson wife Rachel. Uncle jack mention that Tony Jackson people from Tennessee and surrounding North Carolina probably worked for those people. We need to find the connection.I think they use to breed horses for them.
but more research is needeed. The Jackson immigrated down to Dougherty County on the old Pretoria back in the day
accordeing to Uncle Jack. Here is a clue to our relatives the
men would always put PAPA Or Uncle in front of their names. Papa Jack or PAPA Tony etc. UNCLE NELSON or Uncle Eugene. This half of the Jackso married into the Toson family from Baker County. If you would like a family list email me.. Love jeannie! amor!
