Hello,
Found some info on the Family Search site about William Jackson.
He was born in England abt 1846, on the 1871 census Derbyshire.
Married 1st wife Elizabeth Hall 1873 in Huron Michigan, (found 1880 census and death of Elizabeth), then possibly married Elizabeth Seegan/Walley in 1885, (found 1900 census).
Would anyone be able to find a death for William Jackson or an obituary.
Just need a bit more info to confirm the right person.
Thanks KR :)

Trying to trace family of William Jackson, born 1847 in Chinley Head, Bugsworth , died on the 15th October 1910 Huron, Michigan. William is my great grandfather Adam Jackson Jnr brother. Father Adam Jackson, Mother Mary Jackson nee Yates. My name is Janet Dillon nee Jackson and I live in Buxworth (the name was changed from Bugsworth in the twenties). Have seen your family tree on Ancestry.com. and found a gentleman called Jackson Frazer who came to find our family in Buxworth during the war 1939-1945. Would love to hear from anyone.
