The Jackson Family: More About St. Helens   (Site not responding.

Matters were improved in 1845 by the establishment of the St. Helens Improvement Commission which was an early form of local government established to combat some of the social ills of bad housing, drainage, provision of water and many other issues affecting the daily life of local people. members.shaw.ca /jackson_clan/st_helens_2.html   (754 words)
