Person:Joseph Jackson (77)

'Joseph was the eldest son of Stephen Joseph and Mary Ann Jackson. He moved to Ohio where he married and had two known children. A Civil War veteran, Joseph had been wounded in the left elbow, which left his arm stiff at the joint. In his later years, he lived in an Old Soldier's Home in Sandusky, Ohio. At the age of 92, he visited his niece, Mrs. Emma Mooney Sontag in Verona, NJ. Her daughter, Mrs. Albert Szekely states that she remembers Uncle Joe's visit very well.'
