Newspapers.com carries issues of the Valley Falls Vindicator, but only starting in 1890, after the time when James Jackson died.

It also carries issues of the Valley Falls New Era for the specified period in Feb 1888. Both were weekly newspapers published on Saturday and Thursday, respectively.

However, in the New Era, there are "for sale" ads as follows published on Feb. 9th and Mar 1st. The second ad was possibly already paid for, so was printed after James' death on Feb 11.15

     
     The following obituary appeared in the newspaper the Valley Falls Register published in Valley Falls, Kansas 9 March 1888:

He leaves a wife and two sons (a little daughter having preceeded him to the spirit world about 5 years since), a brother and 2 sisters in Colorado and two sisters in this state, who have the sympathy of a large circle of acquaintances in their sad bereavment. A Neighbor.

     The following obituary appeared in the newspaper the Valley Falls New Era published in Valley Falls, Kansas 15 March 1888:
Obituary
The subject of this sketch, was born in Dearborn County, Indiana, November 29, 1852, died near Valley Falls, Kan., Feb. 11th, 1888, was 35 years, 3 months and 12 days old.

He was left an orphan at the early age of 9 years, His mother soon after, with the rest of the family, emmigrated to Kansas; from this on, the responsibility of the home and fireside fell on the young boys' shoulders, and well he performed his part through hard work and strict attention to business, he gathered together a goodly portion of this worlds goods, first buying out the heirs to the old homestead, and since then has added a number of acres, and with the prospects ahead to enjoy life with. Thus we are reminded that life is uncertain and death sure. The hands that cared for a widowed mother, and fed and gave a home to orphan sisters. The hands that made a home for his wife and children, and hewed out and left for himself a name without one blot or blemish to blur or mar it. These hands are forever at rest. Strictly temperate, he belonged to no church, but was a firm believer in a life after this, when men would be judged by their deeds and not be their pretentions. Loved by many and respected by all. Such a man was J. S. Jackson. The funeral was preached at the family residence Tuesday, Feb. 15 (sic), 1888. Rev. Hill officiating.

A large and sympathizing concorus of friends and neighbors assembled together to mingle their tears of tender sympathy and to pay their last sad tribute of respect to the orphan, the brother, the father and friend. We cannot understand in this life why it is that a father of is (sic) torn away from his children and from his dear companion, just at a time when the care of and loving protection a father is so much needed, but God has a purpose in all things, and it may be to bring our affections closer and more firmly to him, and we bow submissively to the hand that doeth all thngs well and in the words of the poet we can think of none more appropriate than these:

A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is still,
A place is vacant in our home
That never can be filled.
God in his wisdom has recalled
The boon his love had given,
And though the body moulders here
His soul is safe in Heaven.
A Friend.11

     On 16 December 1864, at Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee, USA, he was "wounded slightly" on the second day of the Battle of Nashville in which Major General George H. Hood routed Lieutenant General John Bell Hood's confederate forices.19,12 Lewis A. Schamp ended his military service on 24 August 1865 at Clinton, Clinton Twp., Clinton County, Iowa, USA,
End of Military Service section.11,12

Census Data

     Louis and Kate Schamp appeared on the 1885 State Census of El Paso County, Colorado, enumerated 1 June 1885, described as a ranchman. Their children Will were listed as living with them. As well as 4 or 5 men employed on the ranch, and a U.S. Signals Officer with 3 assistants.7
     Lewis A. appeared on the 1860 Federal Census St. Francois County, Missouri in the household of his parents, Abram and Mary A Schamp.3
     Lewis H. Schamp appeared on the 1870 U.S. Federal Census of Jefferson Twp., Jefferson County, Kansas, Oskaloosa Post Office, enumerated 18 June 1870, described as a farmer. His son, William L., was listed as living with him. As well as his mother, Mary Ann Schamp who was listed as his housekeeper. Henrietta Schamp and William Schamp may have been younger siblings..2

     The following analysis is from my personal research and reflects my attempts to consolidate information from different sources.
There are two very similar gravestones in Colorado. The one in Crystal Cemetery includes a note that he was disinterred and reburied in 1914. I think that this indicates his final resting place.21

There they raised their family of six children to manhood and womanhood, namely: Clarence McCoy and Mrs. Melvin Stafford of Valley Falls; Mrs. Ed Ellerman, Ralph and Fred McCoy of Nortonvllle and Carl McCoy, who died September 23. 1921.

     Funeral services were hold Monday: at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Ed Ellerman, Rev. T. B. Adel of Topeka officiating. The reading of the 23rd Psalm and a portion of John 14, a brief talk touching on the life of the deceased, and two selections by a male quartet, composed the service at the home. The large concourse of neighbors and friends spoke but faintly the high esteem in which Mr. McCoy and the family are held. The pall bearers consisted of three sons, Ralph, Fred, and Clarence McCoy; two sons-in-law, Ed Ellerman and; Melvin Stafford; and a grandson, Barney McCoy. The body was laid to rest In the Nortonvllle cemetery.
     Mr. McCoy was a quiet, unassuming man, yet his life was a monument of the example of right. He was a man of strong convictions, a fine neighbor and a kind and Indulgent husband and father. There was a daily beauty about his life which won the hearts of all who knew him. In temperament he was mild, conciliatory, and candid; and yet remarkable for his uncompromising firmness. He gained the confidence of his fellowmen when he seemed least to seek it. Well may his children and companion cherish his memory as a precious legacy. We fain would offer a word of comfort to the sorrowing ones, but we can only point them to the promise, "At eventide It shall be light."6

     He was educated in 1812
     Stuart Smith wrote to Harold Bridgeland on Nov 4, 2004:
I have an old arithmetic work book which belonged to James Smith when he was a child in England. The cover of the book is heavy brown fabric and the math problems are about pense and shillings. It has a date of 1812 written in it.29 He emigrated on 26 June 1830 from London, England, bound for New York.30 He immigrated circa 15 August 1830 Arrived in New York after about 6 weeks at sea.31 He lived at Dearborn County, Indiana, USA, circa 30 September 1830 Arrived in Dearborn County, Indiana about 6 weeks after leaving New York.32
     James Smith appeared on the 1840 U.S. Federal Census of Miller Twp., Dearborn County, Indiana, USA. (Only the head of the household was named in this census.) His wife was probably Jane Langdale and the children were probably Mary, Anna, Thomas, Edward, Martha, John and Robert, based upon estimated ages. . The enumeration included a total of 9 free white persons, with 2 between 20 and 49 and 7 under 20. One was employed in agriculture and 1 was employed in navigation of canals. lakes and rivers. This census was enumerated by A. J. Cotton.33 He lived at at Lot 16, concession 9 (Ravenna), Collingwood Twp., Grey County, Ontario, Canada, in 1847 In about 1847 he moved to Collingwood Township, Ontario after living in Vaughn Township. J. Martha Thornton tells me (January 1994) that when the Smith's moved to Upper Canada they travelled north by canal boat to "the lake". They then crossed the lake by boat. In his memoir, E. Frank White remembered that "James Smith settled on the lot at Ravenna, northwest corner where he spent several years before moving to Richmond Hill and then to Winnebago, Illinois."34
     James and Jane Smith appeared on the 1851 Canadian Census (delayed) of Collingwood Twp., Grey County, Canada West, enumerated 12 January 1852. James was described as a farmer and a Baptist. Their children, James, Edward, Martha, John, Robert and Sarah, were listed as living with them. He had 200 acres at Lot 16, Concession 9, in Collingwood Township.35,13

James was described as a farmer and a Baptist. Their children, Edward, Sarah and Robert, were listed as living with them. They lived in a 1 1/2 story frame house.12 He lived at Bright, Miller Twp., Dearborn County, Indiana, USA, before 1863 The family returned to the United States, except for Martha who married Thomas Boothby White. They settled at Bright, near Lawrenceburg.36 He lived at Rockford, Rockford Twp., Winnebago County, Illinois, USA, in 1863.38 He lived at Seward Twp., Winnebago County, Illinois, USA, in 1864 near Winnebago.38

His daughter, Sarah H., was listed as living with him. As was his granddaughter Mary C. Smith. Sarah and Mary were keeping house for him.10
     Liz Harmer has provided me a PDF file containing an image of a type written transcription of a letter from James Smith to T. J. Rorke. I believe it was written between about April 1 and April 4, 1882 based upon internal references to "last Friday 31st" and to a continuation of the letter on April 5th. (Note that I need to find the above PDF to confirm wheter the spelling errors in this letter are in the transcription, or my retyping it into a text file.) Thomas Jacob Rorke may have been the T. J. Rorke, the recipient of this letter.

     T.J. Rorke
     Heathcote, Ont.
     Winnebago Station,

     Winnebago County, Ill.                     1882
     Dear Friends:
     It is long since I wrote to you, though often thought and talked about you, but the things of this world have caused me much trouble and vexation. I have some mortgages hundred of miles away in the west, and one particular that the man that mortgaged his farm to me sold it, the farm, to another man, when interest was due it was not sent to me. How many times I wrote to inquire about it, I cannot tell you, for I kept no count, but continued to get no answer, until I wrote and threatened to close the mortgage, then the man wrote to me informing me himself and and (sic) family were sick and had spent all the money he intended to pay me with, and begged that I would wait until he got better and able to pay me. I granted this request I believe him to be honest. The cause I take mortgage hundreds of miles west I get two percent interest more than I can get in Illinois.
     William was 21 years of age the second of last February, his two sisters and brother sold their interest in the little farm to me, so that I owned three parts of it and William one. They sold to me for five hundred dollars each. Mrs. Eterny sold the three shares for 700 dollars more than I gave for them. William sold his share at the same rate. I had 600 dollars of pension money and rent belonging to Wm. The land just sold for three thousand dollars. I gave William all the three shares sold for more than they cost me, which was 700 dollars. That and his share of the place with the 800 cash that I had saved with rent and pension, made for him to begin with twenty-three hundred dollars. William has bought 80 acres of land with a good house on it and good out buildings and 10 acres of hog pasture fenced in with three boards and one wire.
     Will’s brother Ed is married, and William says he has gt a clever, religious wife and is doing well. My son John, living 8 miles from them and is also doing well, has sent me word that he is coming to see us this spring wen he gets his crops put in this spring. My son Rob has bought his partner out and is doing considerable business. He has three hired hands besides his son. He is so engaged with the things of this world he has no time to prepare for the next. Edward and his family are well and doing well. His boys are steady, good workers and stout, strong-built, compared with their father. He has mad over $6000 since he went to the place he is on. In buying land and building he is only owing $500, and he says he can pay that off in three months.
     We hav small-pox in this place. It has only been in one house as yet. There has been much sickness and many deaths in this part since you were here; people of all ages are constantly dropping off.
     Thomas White informed us of Mr. Dale’s death and Mr. and Mrs. Gibson.
     One of our neighbors died last night, over 80 years of age. We have got a grain elevator since you were here, also several good houses put up. Property is rising. Farms handy to this place have been sold for $75.00 per acre, and some are asking a hundred, and I believe they will soon get their price.
     Last Friday, 31st, the glass on the north side of my neighbor’s house stood at 80 degrees at five o’clock in the evening. People are puttin (sic) in their garden seeds and farmers are plowing to put in their crops.
     I feel a want of William to do my jobbing.
     April 5th. Cold, wet weather. Late spring.
     I believe my son John has more correct views of the mystery of the Gospel than any child I’ve got. 1 Timothy, 3rd, 16th. I have been informed that my son Rob is so engaged with the things f this world that  he has no time to prepare for the next, but he intends to be safe, so he has come out a Universalist. We are told in the Word of Life tha tif the Gospel be hid it is hid from them that are lost, whom the God of this world hath blinded their eyes.Jacob and Esau were brothers. The one was taken and the other left. Two thieves were crucified with Jesus, the one was taken and the other left. God is a Sovereign and has an unquestionable right to do what he will with His own. As many as are led by the Spirit of God are the Sons of God, Romans 8, 7th, and iic sons, then heirs; whom God liveth he liveth unto the end he changeth not, if they violate his statues and disregard his righteous laws then he says he will visit their transgressions with the rod and their iniquities with stripes, but His loving Kindness he will not take from them nor suffer his faithfulness to fail.
     I am blessed with good health, but nor free from rheumatic pains. Few people have more reason to be thankful to the giver of all good than I have. My wants are well supplied. The their that was crucified with my Lord and Savior, whose soul is now in the realms of bliss, has not more reason to be thankful than I have. I thank the Lord that it is written in the Word of Truth that where sin abounds Grace superabounds.
     Remember me to all inquiring friends. My memory is so poor that I can hardly think on anything. Real estate is less trouble than money in attending to than (sic) money, every large amount of property in this state is not free from incumbrance when the records are examined; hence the necessity of an abstract to be sure the title of the property you mortgage is good.
     From your well wisher, both for time and Eternity,
     (siged) James Smith

     Please overlook all blunders and mistakes.40

     The following biographical information was published at a clipping in one volume of the series We Remember, (2002), originally published, April 1885 or 1916:
SMITH, James,
     who for many years was one of Winnebago County's most respected and representative men, was born in England, a son of Edward Smith. When the later died, he had 54 grandchildren, thirty-three great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren, the family being a very prolific one. On the day that King George IV died [King George IV died on June 26, 1830 according to the Encyclopedia Britanica web site], James Smith set sail from London, England for New York, in the year 1830, and the voyage took six weeks. From New York City he made his way to Dearborn County, Ind., and this trip also took six weeks. Subsequently he went to Canada, where he remained until 1863, but in that year came to Winnebago County, ILL. and for a year lived at Rockford. In 1864 he bought 100 acres of land in Seward Township, and operated it until 1875, in that year retiring ot the village of Winnebago, where he lived until his death on April 7, 1885, when he was 87 years old.
     handwritten date 1916 inserted - probably indicating year of clipping]
James Smith married Jane Langdale, a daughter of Thomas and Jane (Hill) Langdale, natives of Yorkshire, England. Their children were as follows: Elizabeth, who married Stephen Liddle; Thomas James, who was killed in battle during the Civil War, when he was in the command of Gen. Banks; Mary Jane, who married Robert Raymond; Edward; Martha who married Thomas White; John; Ann; Robert; and Sarah H. who married Rev. James Thaxter. James Smith wrote his own epitaph which he designed for his tombstone, but this was accidentlly destroyed. The Smith family is one of the best known in Winnebago County, and its representatives have all borne their share in its building and advancement.25

     In the obituary of Sarah Hill Smith who died 21 June 1924, his father, James Smith was listed as predeceased.41
     Research notes (June 2018):
It would be interesting to determine if there was a relationship between my 2nd great-grandfather, James Smith and Ellen Ewbank née Smith. They were both from Yorkshire.
     Was it the Ewbanks that influenced James' in-laws, the Langdales to move to Indiana?36
