In 1881 she came with her parents to this section where she has since resided. In her earlier life she was united in marriage to John N. Lee, and to them was born one child, a daughter, Mrs. J.M. Derreberry, who resides at Rogers. Feb. 17, 1884 she was united in marriage to Kib Terry by whom she is survived. Deceased is also survived by a sister, Mrs. J.W. Foland of Frankton, Ind. and 3 brothers - C.C. Jackson, Noblesville, Ind.; J.M. Jackson, Kansas City and W.W. Jackson who resides west of Springdale.
