Interview with Archie Jackson 8
April 4, 2001


J: All right, or you can take it with you. Here's John Jackson, immigrant from
 England. He immigrated to Clarksburg, Virginia, in 1801. B: Okay, so they came over at the turn of the century. J: They came to America in 1748. Met on shipboard. He came to Maryland after a
 few years and married. Two other sons born in Maryland. Lived in northern
 Virginia. Revolutionary soldiers. All this kind of stuff. B: Let's see what else. What is this map? J: That's just an old map of the Florida Southern Railway, the old ACO Railroad is
 what it is.

B: Is your land near that? J: It ran right through our land. B: But your land doesn't show on this particular map? J: Not at that time.

B: Did you all own any of this property in here? J: This is what we call the old home place right in here. You see, there's Oliver
 Park, so we're back this side.

B: Sure. We'll need a picture of that. This is some of the cattle? J: That's up on the courthouse square. B: Yes. 4H.

J: 4H judging.

B: You were in that when you were a youngster, weren't you? J: No, I never was. I was in FFA. That's taken in the 40's. Granddaddy is right
 there somewhere. I have another picture here somewhere.

B: Let's take a look at your other pictures and go through those, because you can
 always get very interesting information. You have some pedigree charts or genealogy charts that you are going to copy and put with this record, which I think will be very valuable. Now let's look at some of the photographs. I think
 you loaned us some of these before.
