Frederick Huth Jackson (1863–1921) was a British financier and partner at the merchant banking firm Frederick Huth & Co, originally established by his great-grandfather, Frederick Huth.
Early life
He was the son of Thomas Hughes Jackson and Hermine Meinertzhagen, and the grandson of Sir William Jackson, 1st Baronet. His education was completed at Harrow School followed by studies at Balliol College, Oxford.
Career
Jackson held a partnership role at the private banking institution Frederick Huth & Co. Between 1918 and 1919, he fulfilled the duties of High Sheriff of the County of London. Following his passing in 1921, the bank encountered financial challenges, prompting the Governor of the Bank of England to recommend its amalgamation with Konig Brothers in 1923.
Personal life
In 1894, he wed Claire Annabel Caroline Grant Duff, a poet and writer, who was the daughter of Sir Mountstuart Grant Duff. Their marriage produced four offspring:
- Frederick, who married Helen Vinogradoff, daughter of the historian Sir Paul Vinogradoff
- Konradin, who became the wife of Sir Arthur Hobhouse
- Anne Marie, an author who married Christopher Evelyn Fremantle and later resided in the United States
- Claire Annabel, who married Louis de Loriol and settled in France
A portrait of Mrs. Huth Jackson (née Annabel Grant Duff), his wife, was created by John Singer Sargent.
