 Lawrence (Kansas) Daily Journal May 3, 1900 p. 4 Mrs. Penick received a letter recently from James C. Jackson of Ethel, Tex, inquiring for a lost sister. A correspondence resulted, photographs were exchanged and Florence was proved to be Jackson's sister. Dr. Jackson, a prominent citizen of that section of Kentucky where the children were born, adopted this boy, giving him the name of Jackson. The family removed to Ethel, Tex., where the doctor died in 1892. The boy remained with Mrs. Jackson till her death last February. He had always had a feeling that he had a sister somewhere in the world. He did not know why, but so firm was the belief that he made a vigorous and determined effort to find her. He has also found his three brothers, two of whom are in Kentucky. Jackson may decide to make his home in Kansas with his sister.
