Jackson, William Henry
Variant namesBiographical notes:
On the 4th of July, 1876, as the United States turned 100, a group of people [the 'Boston Party'] from the east built a flagpole out of a pine tree and raised the American flag in Antelope Park. Seven years later, a railroad--the Atlantic and Pacific Railway--was constructed through Antelope Park. The town was named for the flagstaff which was still standing. Photographer William Henry Jackson traveled from Denver to photograph the Grand Canyon in 1883. He returned to the Canyon in 1892.
