[edit] Ted Nugent

I am wondering why Ted Nugent is list under notable people from Jackson Michigan? He is neither born in Jackson (he was born in Detroit) or currently lives in Jackson.

Not that I really care one way or the other, but the reason is that he was a long-time resident of Concord Township, until relatively recently. I think he still owns his property there. Whether he belongs in the list here, I really don't care. older ≠ wiser 11:38, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

He indeed still owns property here, and probably still visits the area.Twohlford 06:40, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

The Nuge is now a resident of Crawford Texas. http://www.livedaily.com/news/7494.html Of course, he once was a Michigan resident. 7&6=thirteen (talk) 16:34, 16 February 2008 (UTC)Stan

[edit] Jack Parr

I know that he grew up in Jackson and got his first break in radio there. I went to school with his niece Denice Parr at Northwest High. I didn't put the two together until I asked her at our 10 year reunion. The Wiki page for him says he was born in Canton, Ohio. 70.142.144.131 20:16, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources, Citations

I don't to clutter this article with lots of {{fact}} tags -- especially since some newbie will interpret them as a license remove content -- but even a casual glance will uncover a number of statements in this article that need a source either because they are potentially controversial (e.g., the Republican Party was founded in Jackson) or intriguing enough that a reader would like to go to the source to read more about it (the founding of Jackson). Any hope that someone with access to the proper materials can make these improvements? -- llywrch (talk) 18:01, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
