Middle Ga. Argus – Week of September 22, 1883
Thursday the 19th it was just 57 years since Mr. J. w. McCord settled in 
Jackson, and is the oldest citizen now living in this place.  It was long 
before railroads were a convenience when this gentleman settled in the original 
forest where the thriving town of Jackson now stands, and although in his early 
life being deprived of this and many other new fangled necessaries, such as 
patent washing machines, liver-pads, hand organs, pinch-back jewelry, etc., he 
glided smoothly along and has ever retained the name of an honest, upright 
gentleman, was married and has reared an interesting, industrious and through-
going family of children, and he is to-day in easy circumstance and sound as a 
trade dollar.
