Life
Born 25 July 1809, he came from a family connected with Doncaster, where both his grandfather and his father were mayor. He was the third son of the large family of James Jackson, banker, by Henrietta Priscilla, second daughter of Freeman Bower of Bawtry; John Edward Jackson was an elder brother. In 1829 he was admitted to Lincoln's Inn, and was called to the bar there in 1834.
Jackson settled as a banker at Doncaster. He was treasurer of the borough from 1838, and trustee of a number institutions, taking a large part in establishing the Doncaster free library. He suffered heavy losses in the bank failure of Overend, Gurney, & Co.
Jackson died at Doncaster 1 December 1882. By his marriage with a daughter of Hugh Parker of Woodthorpe, Yorkshire, he left four sons and four daughters.

Jackson's major work was Doncaster Charities, Past and Present (1881, Worksop), which had been written long before. For the Surtees Society he edited:
He was engaged at the time of his death in editing for the society a memoir of the Priestley family.
Jackson also contributed to the Yorkshire Archæological Journal a paper on Sir Robert Swift and a memoir of the Rev. Thomas Broughton, as well as papers on local muniments (abstracts of deeds in the possession of James Montagu of Melton-on-the-Hill) and on the Stovin Manuscripts.
