Born on Eldred Hill, Spring Creek, Pennsylvania in Warren County, Justice Robert H. Jackson goes to Washington, DC. He cut his teeth on the beauty of Eldred Hill, where the best cherry wood grows in the USA and clean sparkling streams flow. A more rural setting is not to be found than in the hills of Spring Creek Township.
