John Jackson (1801–1848) was an English engraver.
Jackson was born at Ovingham, Northumberland in 1801, and was apprenticed to the wood-engraver Thomas Bewick. After a quarrel with his master, Jackson went to London and worked for the wood-engraver William Harvey.
Jackson made engravings for Northcote's Fables and illustrations in Penny Magazine. In the early 1830s he taught wood-engraving to his younger brother Mason Jackson. In 1839 he provided over 300 engravings for an illustrated history of wood-engraving with text written by William Andrew Chatto.
