The newspaper announcement provided needed clarification that Alice was a daughter of Coe Downing Jackson. The problem is that a daughter named Alice does not appear in the 1860 and 1870 census entries for this family. Instead, a daughter named Sarah E. Jackson appears to be the same age as Alice Rosemon. Sarah is not seen after "Alice" marries Cornelius Rosemon. If Sarah's middle initial had been
A instead of
E, I would be more comfortable with this switch.

Alice Rosemon lived for several decades after marrying and had a few children with descendants alive today. She seems to be the only one of all of the children of Coe Downing Jackson to have had issue. Ida E. Jackson, a sister of Sarah/Alice, married Sanford Soper, but it does not seem that she had any children. The rest of the siblings remained unmarried, often found living together, and Sarah is not among them.
