Bio

Jackson was born and raised in New York City to a wealthy mercantile family. Unfortunately, he did not enjoy numbers or business. Instead, he joined the Union Cavalry at the outbreak of the Civil War, working his way from Private to Colonel, then back down to Private by the end of the war.

Back home, Jackson’s flamboyant and cocky nature proved too much for his family, ultimately resulting in his departure for the West. Since then, he has explored the uncivilized lands of the United States, increasingly aspiring toward the building and civilizing of the rest of the country.
