I am stuck and need help tracing my Jackson line. I'm trying to find the
parents of Robert Frank Jackson, my great-great grandfather. I have
gathered lots of info but under parents it's always blank or unknown!
Some of the residence info comes from an interview with Robert Frank and
not census records. I've tried researching his siblings and children but
I'm stuck. I have access to HeritageQuest and Ancestry at my library. I
know this is long but here's all I know.

Father: unknown, b. NY, IN or ME. d. abt 1846 in Saline, Washtenaw Co.,
MI. Resided in Jacksons' Prarie, Steuben Co., IN in Jan 1841 and then
Saline, Washtenaw Co., MI.

Mother: Laura, b. NY or MA. d. bef Jun 1916. Resided in Jacksons'
Prarie, Steuben Co., IN in Jan 1841 and then Saline, Washtenaw Co., MI.
1853-58 lived with Son-in-Law P.B. Spear & daughter Ester in Hamilton,
Madison Co., NY and New London, Huron Co., OH in 1860.

Children are: (I know the dates don't make much sense)
Catherine, d. bef Jun 1916, married Mr. VanHusen. Resided in Hamilton,
Madison Co., NY in 1850.
Eliza, d. bef Jun 1916. Resided in Hamilton, Madison Co., NY in 1850.
Elizabeth, d. bef Jun 1916. Married Mr. McClave. Resided in New London,
Huron Co., OH in 1850-1860.
Samuel, d. bef Jun 1916. Resided in Orland, Steuben Co., IN in 1850.
Sophia, d. bef Jun 1916. Resided in Saline, Washtenaw Co., MI in 1850 &
1860 in Kalamazoo, MI.
Esther K., b. 4/25/1817 in Macedon, Wayne Co., NY. Married Philetus
Bennett Spear on August 29, 1838 in Macedon, Wayne Co., NY. d.
1/19/1878. Resided in Hamilton, Hamilton Village, Madison Co.,
NY in 1850-1860. They had 8 children.
Robert Frank, b. 1/29/1841 in Jacksons' Prarie, Steuben Co., IN. (other
docs have him b. OH, IL, NY, MI, IN, WI). d. 8/25/1921 in San
Francisco, CA. Resided in IN, MI, NY, MI, OH, WI and then CA. I
have his civil war military papers and details. Married Harriett
Louise Dutton in New London, OH on 6/12/1860. Had 7 children.
Uknown, b. 1841-1846, IN.

I've been looking at this and not finding anything to really help. I suggest
you search for info on Philetus Bennett Spear and his wife Esther. Siince he
was a prominent professor there should be some biographical info somewhere.
I found mention of a book written by his son called "In Memoriam. Philetus
Bennett Spear, D.D." That would be a good place to start if you can track it
down. Also, Colgate University has 2 feet of his papers in their historical
archives which may or may not contain family info. I also noticed that in
the 1860 Madison Co, NY census, Esther Spear said she was born in either
Connecticut or Canada (I couldn't tell for sure what it said.) \

In 1860 Laura Jackson and daughter Sophia aze living with Mansfield Payne
and his family in Madison Co, NY. Do you know if he's related to Laura?

Thanks Doug. I have found a lot of info on Philetus Spear but little

mention of his wife. I know there are lots of papers kept that were
written by the Spears, I'll have to see what I can find out about them
from here in CA. I couldn't read the 1860 census birth for Esther either
but know she was born NY. Robert & Laura did have a daughter Sophia and
they & the Spears family did live in Madison Co., NY so it probably is
her. Unfortunately it doesn't help me figure out who she is and who her
husband was.

Laurie,

This may be a dumb question, but do you know Elmer R. Nelson? He has family
tree info posted on ancestry.com regarding Philetus Bennett Spear and a bit
on Esther K. Jackson. Perhaps he can provide a clue to help you with the
Jackson side of your research.

Laurie,

I don't know if you have this already but I found Robert with his mother in
the 1850 census for Saline Twp, Washtenaw Co., MI. She was 55 born in NY.
No spouse listed. Children: Elizabeth age 20 born in NY, Sophia age 12 born
in NY, Robert age 8 born in IN.

I'll keep checking to see if I can find anything else.

Interestingly, there seem to have been no Jackson's living in Jacksons'
Prairie in the 1840 census. There are also no Jackson's living in Steuben
Co in 1840. One would think that Laura and her unknown Jackson husband were
probably living in the same general area as their residence only one year
later which was Jacksons' Prairie in 1841.

I'll keep plugging away.

Thank you for your efforts. Supposidely the Jackson family moved to

Saline, Washtenaw Co., MI right after Robert was born in 1841-53. I
haven't found any proof though.

parents of Robert Frank Jackson, my great-great grandfather. I have
gathered lots of info but under parents it's always blank or unknown! Some

this is long but here's all I know.

Co., NY and New London, Huron Co., OH in 1860.

Catherine, d. bef Jun 1916, married Mr. VanHusen. Resided in Hamilton,
Madison Co., NY in 1850.

Bennett Spear on August 29, 1838 in Macedon, Wayne Co., NY. d.
1/19/1878. Resided in Hamilton, Hamilton Village, Madison Co.,
NY in 1850-1860. They had 8 children.
Robert Frank, b. 1/29/1841 in Jacksons' Prarie, Steuben Co., IN. (other
docs have him b. OH, IL, NY, MI, IN, WI). d. 8/25/1921 in San

Thank you in advance for all input, suggestions and help.

It's not my Laura Jackson but I don't know if there is a connection

since I don't know Mr. Jackson's first name or his siblings but the
dates would be possible.

Thank you for your efforts. Supposidely the Jackson family moved to
Saline, Washtenaw Co., MI right after Robert was born in 1841-53. I
haven't found any proof though.

Laurie, did you see my previous post? I did find Laura and the younger
children in MI in the 1850 census so that is proof that they had moved there
between 1841/42 and 1850. I can email you the image if you don't have it.

It may be a strange coincidence but have you noticed the Robert L. Jackson
family in 1860 Steuben Co, IN? He's from NY and his oldest son is named
Philetus. I tracked them back and they moved to IN from Wayne Co, NY. He's
too old to be another son of your Laura and ??? Jackson but maybe he's a
brother to the mystery man.

That could very well be a connection since the places match.

HeritageQuest has census for 1820 then 1860 so I don't have the others.
Could you send me the images? Thank you so much. I'll have to follow
more on this.
