Annie was born on 15 January 1894 in Dallas, TX to Caleb William Jackson and Eva Green Crosby.
Caleb's father, James Everts Jackson was one of the Dallas County pioneers who came to the Peters' Colony area in 1846. James Everts Jackson was 20 years old then.
James Everts married Diana Jane Davis on 10 December 1849. Annie's father Caleb was born in 1866.
Anyway, in 1900 little Jewell lived with her parents in Justice Precinct 2 (east part) which was in Dallas, TX (1).

At the age of (almost 23) Annie married Mr. Porter Oather Rippy (born in 1889 in Tennessee), our 3rd cousin once removed. Porter's mother was Mary Frances Rippy (nee Gant), our second cousin twice removed.
Porter was a farmer, a man of a stout figure, medium height. His yes were brown and his hair was dark brown (3).
Here is our Porter Oather Rippy's family line*
⇒ his mother Mary Frances Gant (b. 1 Jan. 1866, Sumner Co. TN/d. 8 March 1943)
married Robert Sydney Rippy (b. 14 March 1866) on 1 August 1888 in Dallas County, TX (4,5,6).
⇒ her father Jacob Mason Gant (b. 1 Dec 1849, Sumner Co., TN/d. 8 Feb. 1914, Richardson, Dallas Co., TX) + wife Mary Jane Graves (b. 24 July 1850, Allen, Kentucky), the daughter of Wiley Graves and Mary Ann Charlton. Jacob and Mary married on 19 Jan. 1868 in Sumner, TN (7).
⇒ his father Benjamin Thomas Gant (b. 1812, Orange, NC/d. 1865, Sumner, TN) - on 20 May 1883 (8), he married Miss Mary (Polly) Tarpley (b. 6 Dec. 1812 in Orange, NC), the daughter of Mason Tarpley and Elizabeth Cooke.
⇒ his brother Jacob Rippy Gant, our great-great-grandfather.
Where is President Andrew Jackson in that all?

Annie was a direct descendant of Andrew Jackson's grandfather's brother, Samuel William Jackson (born in Carrickfergus, Antrim, Ireland, in 1737). In other words, Mr. Andrew Jackson was Annie's cousin four times removed.

Annie Jewell and Porter Oather Rippy had seven children - four girls and three boys.
Annie lived 70 years and one day. She died in Garland, Texas on 16 January 1967, a day after her 70th birthday.
Porter passed away ten years earlier on 15 July 1957 due to cerebral hemorrhage. Porter lived 68 years, one month and fifteen days.
Annie and Porter's home was at 310 Sallie Circle, Richardson, Texas then (12). Their house which was built only three years earlier still exists. I googled the address and found out that the house was for sale.
Both Porter and Annie were buried at Restland Memorial Park in Dallas, Texas.
