Jackson was active in the early telephone industry in Michigan, as the president of the Michigan State Telephone Company. He was also president of the Municipal Lighting Commission under Mayor H.S. Pingree from 1893 to 1894. After two successive owners, the Jackson House was sold to Merrill-Palmer in 1925 and was used as a staff residence. Your Heritage House, a children's museum, once occupied this building.
