  The following death record appears to be for this Frederick Jackson.  But I note that his birth date is reported here as in 1867, while in the 1870 census he was reported as 7 years old, meaning born about 1863.  His mother's name matches, though the last name is spelled Hight, rather than Hyatt.  But his father's name is Shadrick, while in the 1860 census, Anna Hyatt's husband was reported as Moses A Jackson.  Some genealogies also report Shadrick as Anna's husband, probably following similar Maynard family information.  Family names and places often get mangled in frontier families.  Also, maybe Moses A had another name like Shadrick/Shadrack.
  
  But here also, the states of birth are wrong, since Celestine Maynard reports that they were both born in Texas.  The 1860 census for Moses reports he was born in Illinois, and the 1860 and 1870 censuses both for Anna report she was born in Indiana.  These are the kinds of details that we see commonly erroneous or confused when the informant is a child in law.
