It has been told that Chief Daloose Jackson lived to be 107, however this is doubtful, according to researchers it was more like 80 some years.
However there is no doubt that he was Chief of the Coos Indian Tribe, known now as The Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians (CTCLUSI). Chief Jackson was born in a time when life was much different than it is today.
The CTCLUSI installed a new headstone and surrounded the gravesite with new curbing in 2012. Kinnikinnick was planted on the gravesite.

Chief Jackson, an aged Coos Bay Indian, who was quite a character some 50 years ago, died at North Bend and was buried in the Marshfield Cemetery, Saturday. A daughter and other relatives live up South Inlet. In a write-up several years ago in the Oregonian, Jackson's age was given as 107 years, but old residents of the county state that he was not that old though he was way along in years.
