The marriage of Benjamin Jackson and Mary Rushing began a multi-generational relationship between the Jackson and the Rushing Families of the Cheraw District of South Carolina that saw marriages between the two families into the early 1800's in North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee. I have found no birth or death dates for Mary. Some researchers show Mary Rushing as a daughter of William Rushing, son of John Rushing, but her probable age would make her more likely to be a sister of William and a daughter of John Rushing.
