The Jackson in th book is another of James and Marys son:

SAMUEL N. JACKSON

A Kentuckian by nativity, Mr. Jackson was born in Monroe County,
November 8, 1845. His father was James A. Jackson, a blacksmith by
occupation, and who removed to Missouri with his family in 1852,
settling in Independence. A year later he removed to Harrisonville, Cass
County, and in 1864 to Clay County, but seven years later to Texas,
where he died January 23, 1883, aged 67 years. He was justice of the
peace in Cass County for some years and postmaster at Austin. Samuels
mother was Mary S. Slaughter, formerly of Virginia. There were six
children in the family, five of whom are living, including the subject
of this sketch. The mother died December 24, 1882, aged 58. Samuel N.
recieved a common school education as he grew up and engaged in his
present business at Arnold Station in 1877. His business experience has
been satisfactorily successful, and he has a good trade. December 31,
1868, he married Miss Missouri A. Foster, a daughter of John A. Foster,
of Clay County. They have four children: Carrie Wesley, Lena May, Samuel
N. and James A. His wife is a member of the Christian Church.

You didn't give any dates on the daughters but I found this on the 1880
census using a lookup with Cora since it is not so common.

Since you mentioned the MO Cavalry, I checked the book 'Forgotten Valor'
by Jim Farley. It is about the 1st MO Cavalry Regiment C.S.A.. It lists
a John F. Jackson in Company D. Rank Pvt., age 20, enlistment 12/21/61
and list residence as Camden, Ray County. Remarks: Wounded Bakers Creek;
captured Holly Woods, Arkansas 3/30/1864; was Rebel Spy; confined
5/3/1864 at hard labor. Missouri records indicate was in Georgia and
Tennessee Campaign 1864.

Hope something here helps. Sending copy to the MOClay list if it goes
thru. The Ancestry-Rootsweb merger has things all screwed up.
