S. Trevena Jackson

S. Trevena Jackson, also published as Samuel Trevena Jackson, was an American writer active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Library and catalog records commonly connect him with Lincoln's Use of the Bible and Fanny Crosby's Story of Ninety-Four Years, showing a strong interest in religious subjects, biography, and inspirational history.

His best-known work today is probably Lincoln's Use of the Bible, a short study of Abraham Lincoln's relationship with scripture. He is also associated with books and programs centered on Fanny Crosby, the famous blind hymn writer, which suggests he wrote for readers interested in Protestant devotional life and well-known Christian figures.

The dates often attached to his name in public-domain and bookselling records are 1867–1945, though some library listings instead show 1869- without a death year, so the exact cataloging details are not fully consistent across sources. I could confirm his authorship and subject matter, but I could not confidently confirm a reliable portrait from the sources I found.
