Obituary Notes, From Works to Rewards

Rev. John Jackson died at McGregor, Iowa, in 1867. He was born in England. About 1852 he became pastor of the English Baptist church at Agra, East Indies, and continued five years. His health becoming impaired he left Asia and came to America. He was for six years pastor of the West Baptist church at Milwaukee, and then removed to McGregor, Iowa. After serving one 3 year as pastor of the church here he went back to India and settled at Alahabad. But feeble health soon led him to return to this country and to the bosom of his friends at McGregor, where he "peacefully departed this life to enter into the joy of his Lord." His friends at Milwaukee claimed the honor of his remains and he was buried at that place.
