Jackson, Edward Hall, son of a civil engineer, was born in Birmingham, April 12, 1838. In 1856 he joined a Baptist Church, and in 1859 became a Baptist minister. In that capacity he has laboured in Liverpool, Billesden (Leicestershire), Castle Donington, Ripley, and Louth; and as an occasional lecturer he has been widely popular.
