FRANKLIN T. JACKSON, the immediate subject of this sketch, remained at the parental home until the time of his marriage in 1883, having received his educational training in the public schools and the Curtis Business College, in Minneapolis. After his marriage he removed to Redwood county, Minnesota, where he engaged in farming and stock growing. in which line of enterprise he there continued until 1886, when he came to South Dakota, arriving in McCook county, on the 22d of January, in company with his wife and child, while his equipment for the winning of success and independence in the new home was summed up in his energy, integrity and determination, his visible accessories being represented in a span of mules and a lumber wagon. He took up a pre-emption claim of one hundred and sixty acres and there engaged in farming and stock raising. In the fall of 1886 Mr. Jackson took up his residence in the village of Montrose, where he devoted his attention to the buying and shipping of stock for the ensuing eight years. In 1894 he took up his residence in Salem, where he has since been successfully engaged in the same line of enterprise, being one of the leading stock buyers of this section of the state. He also owns and superintends the operation of more than a thousand acres of farming land in this county, and he is known as one of McCook county's most progressive and alert business men. In politics Mr. Jackson is a staunch Republican, and for a number of years past has been a prominent figure in local affairs of a public nature. In the fall of 1902 he was elected to represent his district in the state legislature, and his course has been such as to amply justify the choice of the voters of the district. He is affiliated with Fortitude Lodge, No. 73, Free and Accepted Masons; Salem Chapter, No. 34, Royal Arch Masons; Oriental Consistory, No. 1, Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, in Yankton; Salem Lodge, No. 106, Independent Order of Odd Fellows; Sioux Falls Lodge, No. 262. Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks; Salem Lodge, No. 60, Knights of Pythias; Salem Lodge, Ancient Order of United Workmen; and Ramsey Camp, No. 5634, Modern Woodmen of America, of which he served two terms as consul.
On the 19th of July, 1883, Mr. Jackson was united in marriage to Miss Nettie M. Gibbs, of Lake City, Minnesota, and they are the parents of four children, namely John A., Fay F., Carol F. and Helen H.
