Daughter of David Jacks and Mary Romie. Never married.
From Land King; Story of David Jack:
"Vida, the youngest child, was lame as a child and was educated privately before attending schools in Oakland and Berkley, where she was found to be a bright student. Her teacher in Monterey was Lou Henry, the future wife of United States President, Herbert Hoover.
The (family) corporation was terminated in 1919, when its properties were divided equally among the six remaining shareholders. Merging their shares the three unmarried sisters formed the L.M. and V. Jack firm with Lee as President, Margaret Vice — President and Secretary Treasurer."
Vida's sister, Margaret Jacks, endowed the Vida Jacks Professorship of Education at Stanford University. The Jacks family estate gave generously to many education and historic causes.
