Narrative

Hedley appears in the 1880 US census in Minneapolis, living in a hotel or boarding house. At that time, Minneapolis was the largest flour producer in the world, due in part to the efforts of a Mr. Pillsbury.
He apparently went back to Nova Scotia the next year, perhaps for a visit? He appears in the 1881 Canadian census.
We next see him in St.Paul in 1888 getting married. His two children, Alfred and Grace Darling were born there. Sometime between 1892 and 1896 the Jacksons moved to Texas, since Eugene is born in Cameron. By 1899 they are in Galveston, where Hedley Jr is born.
