William Jackson (Saugus, Massachusetts) : ウィキペディア英語版 | William Jackson (Saugus, Massachusetts)
William Jackson was an English-American pottery manufacturer and politician from Saugus, Massachusetts. ==Pottery manufacturing== Jackson arrived in Saugus (then part of Lynn) from Manchester in 1808 and bought a small farm and part of a meadow that would become known as "Jackson's Meadow". Jackson found a deposit of fine clay on his land. Jackson sought to use his clay to make earthenware crockery. He constructed a plant consisting of one large building and two smaller ones and procured the best equipment and workmen available. Production began in 1811, however, he soon found that the clay could only be used to make common redware, not the fine kind of ware he had hoped to make. The factory continued for four years, but became unprofitable and was abandoned.
