  • Revolutionary War veteran

    According to the D.A.R., Revolutionary War service is claimed but unproven. However, it appears that the S.A.R. approved it and put a marker on his grave reflecting his service.

    Edward Jackson and his brother George both married women named Elizabeth Brake, but according to the D.A.R., they were different women.
