Alfred JACKSON
Sarah M. BEGHTOL

Note: this family group sheet has been pieced together from circumstantial evidence, but the coincidences are compelling and the evidence is mostly primary, so I'm accepting it. Still… caveat emptor!

Husband: Alfred JACKSON
Birth: ca. 1848, English Canada
Death: 1872-80

Marriage: 18 Oct 1870, Hamilton Co., IA

Wife: Sarah M. BEGHTOL
Birth: May 1852 or, more likely, 1846, IL
Other Spouse: m2. 22 Jan 1882, Schuyler Co., IL, Jeremiah STROOPS
Father: born in KY
Mother: born in OH

Children — born in IA, apparently in Boone Co., IA:

1. Ida May JACKSON, b. 29 May 1871
2. Grant JACKSON, b. 29 May 1871
3. Harriet Elizabeth "Hattie" JACKSON, b. Feb 1873

Ida and Grant were both 9 years old in the 1880 census, so I'm assuming they were twins.
