My curiosity in the lands allocated by the Drapers Company is
because Samuel JACKSON (1641-1706) of first Kirkby Lonsdale and then Dublin
apprenticed with the Drapers Company in 1657. Samuel’s grandfather William
JACKSON (1575-1626) had also been a member of the Drapers Company. I have found
no evidence that either of them held lands here, although it is quite likely
that William JACKSON (1575-1626) did.
Samuel JACKSON’s older brother William JACKSON
(1628-1688) was apprenticed with the Clothworkers Company and had other holdings, initially in Coleraine.
