This dozen or so pages includes various bits that I have found relating to the JACKSONs who had connections with either Co. Wexford or Co. Wicklow - and a few bits in Co. Kildare. When I finish more deeds research, there will be more to add - possibly in a separate page.

COMMISSIONERS OF
VALUATION (IRELAND)—BALTINGLASS UNION-MR. GEORGE CRAIG, VALUER.
§ THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. JACKSON) (Leeds, N.)
(who replied) said: I am informed that the revising
officer, Mr. Craig, has not made separate valuations in the Baltinglass Union
such as those referred to by the hon. Member; but he has, in some few
instances, changed the name of occupiers and immediate lessors, which may
affect 1760 the Poor Law
franchise only, in consequence of a letter from the proprietor stating that
such changes had been made by him on his property. The revising officer did
give an undertaking to Messrs. E. P. O'Kelly and P. Byrne, Poor Law
Guardians, to carry out the alterations referred to by them, and he informs me
that he has done so. If the particulars of the cases referred to by the hon.
Member are supplied, the Commissioners of Valuation will cause an inquiry to
be made, and if inaccuracies be found to exist, the Commissioners of
Valuation will have the corrections carried into the Union lists immediately. |

1701: In this year
the first purpose-built barracks was built on the Liffey close to Dublin city
(Was it at Islandbridge, or Chapelizod?) hitherto they had been billeted in
private homes or in forts. [R Wyse Jackson, Queen Anne s Irish Army
Establishment in 1704, Irish Sword, Vol I, 1953, p134.]
1704: 36 barracks
for horse and 277 for foot-soldiers were listed this year, in some cases
attached to castles. They were under the care of 25 barrack-masters. Con
Costello, A Most Delightful Station , p20, notes that the only one listed in
Co Kildare was at Athy. [R Wyse Jackson, Queen Anne s Irish Army

The annexation of
the Dean of Christ church to the bishopric had the advantage of drawing able
and ambitious clerics to the otherwise unattractive, impoverished see of
Kildare. However, it was clear that it was the influence, status, income the
comfortable residence and most importantly, the future career prospects
pertaining to the deanery that help the greater traction for the incumbents
of the bishopric of Kildare throughout the 18th century.
For all of these reasons, the calibre of the bishops in
the 1700s was consistent with that of the leading prelates of their day. At
least six of the seven 18th-century incumbents were English born and all were
graduates Oxford, Cambridge or Trinity college, Dublin. Several of these had
formally filled high profile positions in the church of Ireland and in the
English administration in Dublin, many having served as chaplain to the Lord
Lieut. of Ireland. Clearly these clerks future appointment to the see of
Kildare and by implication to the deanery of Christ church, as a propitious
step in their career advancement.
... Charles Jackson, Bishop from 1765 to 1790, also served
as chaplain to the Lord Lieut. of Ireland, the Duke of Bedford at an earlier
stage of his career.

Vol 17 #1Quakerism in the Carlow/Kildare Area 1650-1850 p133 |
Richard JACKSON’s
descendants later moved to Ballitore (with William BARCROFT & John PIM. They
became involved in agriculture and Mountmellick soon became the leading
Quaker colony outside of Dublin. .... The access of Quakers to land in Co.
Kildare and Co. Carlow was twofold; either they acquired it by grant as in
the case of ex-Cromwellian soldiers, or those who objected to this practices
(as in the case of General William Barcroft, who refused a grant of land as
it had been acquired by the sword) on religious ground settled on land
hitherto uncultivated. NOTE: earlier version of Ballitore was recorded as
the townland of Ballitoivre. The geographic location of Carlow monthly
meeting district extended from the town of Athy in south Co. Kildare to
Tullow in Co. Carlow, Its development followed the course of the river Barrow
and later it extended eastwards to encompass the newly established village of
Ballitore in the early eighteenth century. This triangular-shaped region
incorporated the four adjoining baronies ... Narragh and Reban in Co.
Kildare. Where a meeting house was built in Athy and Ballitore in 1708; and
Kilkea and Moone where a meeting house was built at Castledermot. In Co.
Carlow meeting-houses were built at Newgarde (later Carlow) and Newtown in
the barony of Idrone, and lastly at Kilconner, in 1678 in the barony of
Forth. Graveyards were built in Newgarden and Ballykeally in Co. Carlow and
at Ballitore in Co. Kildare.
...10 of the original Cromwellian planters (four of
whom were ex-Cromwellian soldiers) settled during the first period,
1650-1675. They did not make a significant impact on the area, as five of the
original families had left the area by 1700, and by 1725 all their surnames
had disappeared from the Quaker registers.
.... Robert Lecky land transactions
... The other Quakers such as ... and Jacksons faded
into oblivion – presumably they migrated or married non-Quakers, with
resulted in their disownment. |

rebellion. He was the last lived there. Another Jackson, a relative, was
taken prisoner by Dwyers men. Dwyer, as a boy, had been much with the
Jacksons, and ordered the release of the captives; but though he was allowed
to start on his way, he was killed before he got clear of his enemies, and
his greyhound was found watching his body the next day. |
