David,
Family record has Jonathan's birth as 9/04/1838 in NC, he had a twin brother named David. His father is Madison Monroe Jackson. His mother, is said (in my family records) to be Eunice Worthington, but I do not believe this to be the case....still searching. I believe the marriage of Madison Monroe and Eunice was too late for her to be the mother of the twins. Madison, his wife Eunice and children moved to MO from NC sometime between 1840 and 1850. I have found land patent records for Madison in the early 1840's in MO, and for some Worthington family members as well in the same county.
Jonathan's second wife was Rachel Minerva Gutridge (b. 2/5/1852) . She was married once before Jonathan to a Josephus Wesley Stapleton. I have 3/11/1877 as the date of that marriage (Bates Co. MO) .....and incidently I have 1/26/1861 as the date of marriage of he and his first wife (but never had the name). These are not all "documented", some information just came from some written notes by Fred Jackson who was the grandson of Jonathan, and the brother of my great-grandfather. Fred wrote that Jonathan's first marriage was in Henry Co.MO, but I haven't found the record.
Jonathan lived untill 1929. Rachel lived untill 1943. It was known in my family that they moved to Idaho, but I was not sure where they were buried, but I recently found the burial records on ancestry.com.
NAME OF DECEASED: JACKSON, JONATHAN YEAR: 1929CERTIFICATE NUMBER: 068467 COUNTY OF DEATH: Twin Falls CITY: BUHL DATE OFDEATH: 11/15/1929 DATE OF BIRTH: 09/04/1838.
Later (after Jonathan's death) there had been a write up about Rachel in a local Idaho newspaper when she was very old.....I believe it pictured her with her loom.
Let me know if there might be other information of interest to you.
