ZACHARIAH T. JACKSON

	Zachariah T. Jackson, general farmer and lumberman, resides seven 
miles southwest of Newport.  He was born in Monroe county, Ohio, August 17,
1854.  His parents were Samuel and Deborah (Stevens) Jackson, natives of
Pennsylvania.  When quite young they removed to Ohio and thence to 
Wisconsin. Here they lived until the period of their deaths.  The family 
were distantly related to General Jackson, "Old Hickory," and of Irish and 
Scotch descent. They were the parents of six children, five of whom are 
living; David, of Wisconsin; Jesse of Ohio; Andrew; John; and Zachariah, our 
subject.
	The latter was reared in Sauk county, Wisconsin, where he attended
the public schools, secured a fair education and worked for different 
farmers and his parents.  In 1901 he came to Stevens county, finding
various employments, and finally taking a homestead of one hundred and 
sixty acres of land, having upon it eight hundred thousand or one million
feet of excellent saw timber.
	Mr. Jackson was married in 1875, to Mary Sanborn, daughter of 
Daniel and Catherine Sanborn, natives of Illinois.  Many years ago they
located in Wisconsin, where the wife of our subject was born, and where they
passed away some time since.  Mr. and Mrs. Jackson have five children: 
Ralph; Alice; Susan, wife of Earl Rusho; Deborah, married to Daniel 
McTagart; and Cleveland, all of Stevens county.
	The political affiliations of Mr. Jackson are with the democratic
party.
