A BRIEF HISTORY OF JACKSON
1700s
The land that is now Jackson was originally part of the Cambridge Patent granted by King George III in 1761.
1800s
In 1815, old Cambrige was split into three separate towns—known today as White Creek, Cambridge, and Jackson, named for General Andrew Jackson, the victor in the 1813 Battle of
New Orleans.
Today
While Jackson contains no village of its own, it is within about five miles of three villages –
Cambridge to the south, Greenwich to the west, and Salem to the north. In the geographic center of the town, Jackson has five lakes for all kinds of warm-weather fun.
