While 19 Kids and Counting fans go crazy over Josiah Duggar's new girlfriend, Marjorie Jackson, the media is doing some digging to learn as much dirt as they can on the new girl who will probably become a Duggar within the next year.

According to Radar Online, Marjorie's family have been grieving over a loss in their family after one relative died tragically.

The infamous gossip site claims that Marjorie's uncle Ben Jackson, 41 died on March 7, right before the Duggars revealed that Josiah, 18 was dating Marjorie.

The site revealed that Marjorie's uncle was a "divorced father of two," and died "away after a lifetime of criminal activity that would likely shock the deeply religious Duggar family."

Radar has documents from Collin County court that revealed that Ben, a "Texas native was first arrested at just 17 years old and charged with engaging in organized crime, a felony, on July 1, 1991. One month later, he was arrested again and charged with theft over $20,000, another felony."

Marjorie's uncle was sentenced to eight years of probation. Ben had been arrested in October 2001 for drunk driving, and was "sentenced to 180 days in jail, 80 hours of community service, DWI school and a year of probation."

Ben was later arrested for DWI in February 2010. He spent five months in jail for that arrest.

Radar went as far to finding Ben's obituary. Marjorie's father, Greg Jackson (Analucia) of Springdale Arkansas was listed in the list of grieving family members.

MStars News previously reported that the new couple, Josiah, and Marjorie revealed that they were courting in a new clip seen below, before the Duggar's introduced Marjorie to the TLC show.

There's an old saying that says: "When you marry someone, you not only marry that person, you marry that family." With that being said, we want to know if you think Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar will probably have some red flags about their son dating the new girl?
