Biographical history

In August 1906 Arthur C., Walter H. and Cyril F. Jackson, brothers originally from Lancashire, England, bought out the firm of William Berry and Sons in Pincher Creek, Alberta. They established a hardware and saddlery store. The business was managed for many years by Walter. Arthur left the partnership in 1922 and moved to Edmonton. Jackson Brothers later became part of the Marshall-Wells chain of independent hardware dealers.
