Notes |
- "Isaac Marion Jacks was born in Clarke County, GA, 4 July 1832, the son of Jane Maxey and John Jacks.
He came to Coosa County, Alabama, with his parents in 1834, at the age of one and half years. He farmed in the Rockford area, buying property in 1857.
Isaac M. Jacks married three times in Coosa County. He married first, Elizabeth Hardigree, daughter of William and Leah Hardigree, 19 January 1853. His second wife was her sister, Jane Hardigree, whom he married on 29 Dec 1859. His third wife was Sarah Louisa Moseley, the daughter of Elizabeth Arnold Paschall and Thomas Archibald Moseley, whom he married 16 March 1871.
Isaac M. Jacks fought in the Civil War, enlisting 1 Sept. 1862. He was a private in Company K, 59th Regiment, Alabama Infantry, Gracey's Brigade. He was captured 17 June 1864 at Petersburg, Virginia, and imprisoned at Point Lookout, Maryland and Elmira, New York. He was released from the Elmira Union Prison on 19 May 1865 upon taking the Oath of Allegiance to the United States. He was in poor health from his imprisonment in the Elmira Union Prison.
When he went to war he left his second wife, Jane, alone with three small children. In 1863 his family is listed as one of the indigent soldier's families receiving county aid.
After the war, Isaac Jacks with his third wife, Sarah Louisa, moved his family to Texas, settling first in Ellis County. In 1889 they bought a farm near Vernon, Wilbarger County. He was a member of Camp W. L. Cable, No. 125, U. C. V.

More About Elizabeth Hardegree:
Fact 1: One family source has her maiden name spelt as Hardigree, however, in the 1850 Fed Census of Coosa Co., AL, it is spelt: Hardegree.
Notes for Jane Hardegree:
"Northwest toward Hatchett, from an early date several families of Millers owned farms, and these are still owned by their posterity. Near them was Mr. John Jacks, whose sons, Isaac and Sam, were a long time after him still in the county. Somewhat in the same section, but lower down the creek were the Hardegrees, Parishes, Williams Chancellor, and Wm. Bridges.(1)
