Jackson County Historical Markers
NUMBER OF MARKERS IN COUNTY - 40
Have - 22 Need- 18
Jackson County is named for Andrew Jackson a United States president. The county seat is Edna.
We hadn't moved to Portland in San Patricio County for long and Steve said we have to close a bank account there are no branches down here. Both of our names were on it and the closest branch was in Edna. He said take the camera we haven't been to Edna before. Well, in my mind Edna was in Victoria County so when I investigated the markers in Edna there were none, because Edna is in Jackson County not Victoria County. Starting a new job and moving must of thrown me off my game. So we get to Edna and of course there are markers but I had not researched, so we free-styled and when we freestyle it is simply not as organized as when we plan, go figure.
The next trip we planned just a quick overnight weekend getaway. This was probably the most frustrating marker hunting day we had ever experienced, there were so many markers on private property that we just could not assess, saying that, it was still relaxing, driving around this rural county. Hopefully next adventure in Jackson County we can make some contacts and capture some more of this counties markers.
