In 1880 he was a miner in Sierra Co, CA. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-GYYF-9Y56?cc=1417683&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AM6PK-BGY
In 1885 he married Bertha Robinson in Yuba Co CA. At the time he was 27 and she was 21 years old. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939V-9DZ8-D?i=392&cc=1804002&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AKZ3B-59P
In 1900 he, his wife, & 2 children were living in Santa Clara Co, CA https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-DH43-7XV?i=25&cc=1325221&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AM9GV-6N…
In the 1861 Canadian Census he is listed as the son of George Jackson 34 & Donna Maria Jackson 27 living in St. Andrews, Charlotte, New Brunswick. https://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&dbid=1570&h=775987751&tid=&pid=&queryId=b51d3555ca67aefe58082278a7a88b5b&usePUB=true&_phsrc=yoI8122&_phstart=successSource
Border crossings from Canada to the US were not recorded until 1895. In 1879 he probably travelled primarily by train.
