I am trying to trace WE (William Edward) JACKSON who was married to Mary
Etta GRANADE (b. 1834 in Tennessee, d. August 10, 1859, in greene Co., AR)
and lived in the Oakbluff-Rector area. WE JACKSON was originally from
KY...but we cannot trace it. All that we have on him is that he was a
Teamster during the war between the states. We have traced some of the
GRANADE family.

WE JACKSON had two sons: Hervey J Jackson (b. January 27, 1860, d.
September 09, 1944) and W.E. JACKSON (Jr. ?) (b. January 27, 1860, d.
December 25, 1930).

WE Jackson we believe was originally from Kentucky and his wife was from
Tennessee.... but his action in the Civil War was in Arkansas. It is
possible that he may have gone to Clay county, AR, from KY by way of
Tennessee.

There is a story / rumor that I have heard that WE Jackson was much older
than his wife....and that he was murdered by one of the Granade
clan....possibly his father in law: Hervey Wynn GRANADE(b. May 01, 1808, in
Wilson Co., Tennessee; d. March 11, 1870, in Green County, Arkansas) or a
brother-in-law. There is also a chance that WE Jackson was married more than
two or three times and that he might have married others in either Tennessee
or Kentucky sometime after 1862.

any assistance you have to offer in tracing this Jackson line would be
greatly appreciated.
