Devonport Jackson Member Parliament Unionist


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Sir John Jackson (1851-1919), Unionist Member of Parliament for Devonport, during a visit to the bustling docks and harbours of his constituency in 1909. With a keen interest in maritime affairs and a strong commitment to the development of Devonport as a major port, Jackson is seen here engaging with local officials and workers, demonstrating his dedication to the community he represented in Parliament. Sir John Jackson's political career began in 1892 when he was elected as a Councillor for Devonport. He was appointed as a Justice of the Peace in 1895 and served as the Mayor of Devonport from 1898 to 1899. In 1910, he was elected as the Unionist Member of Parliament for Devonport, a position he held until 1918. During his time in Parliament, Jackson advocated for the expansion of Devonport Dockyard and the improvement of the town's infrastructure. He was also a vocal supporter of the naval forces and the Royal Navy, recognizing the importance of Devonport as a key naval base. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a glimpse into the daily life of a prominent local politician and the bustling activity of the docks and harbours of Devonport over a century ago. The image is a testament to the rich history and political traditions of the area, and serves as a reminder of the important role that local representatives have played in shaping the communities they represent.
