Comments:Im hoping somebody remembers or knows of a man
by the last name JACKSON who in the 1911 census boared with MRS REBECCA
CONRAD and her daughter HATTIE WHITNEY and her children: BEATRICE< LOUIS<
ARTHUR and RUTH in Lunenburg along with a few other men from the Halifax
area. I beleive the unknown Jackson man may have been from Dartmouth, but
not sure. My Grandfather (WILLIAM JACKSON) was born in Blue Rocks to
BERTHA TANNER and according to his baptism record , the father was
WILLIAM JACKSON. I wonder if the unknown JACKSON man from the 1911 census
could be my grandfathers father.He was the only JACKSON in the area at
that time
Both my grandfathers parents would have been born in the
range of 1880-1890. The JACKSON man in the census was born in 1883/1884 so
the age would be appropriate. If anybody knew of this individual please
contact me
Thanks for your time
