I can't see anything else, there are too many marriages to pick from seeing as they moved around alot.

Emma Gertrude was born in Edmonton, and William Francis in Ardsley in Yorks. I think I would order Edwin Thomas Jacksons' birth cert.... he was born in Dewsbury, this would confirm his mothers maiden name.

Going back a generation......... looks like Francis and Marys marriage;

FRANCIS JACKSON Pedigree
Male Family


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Event(s):
Birth:
Christening:
Death:
Burial:


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marriages:
Spouse: MARY HOPWELL Family
Marriage: 30 DEC 1832 Draycott And Church Wilne, Derby, England


Their first child Thomas was born 3rd March 1833, so this would tie in nicely.
