This particular line of JACKSONs is not the only JACKSON family to show up in Kings Co., and they may be related to other such lines.. If anyone can help couple some of these together, I would be more than grateful.

Jacksons of Kings Co. Family Tree
NOTE: The forenames echo the forenames of the male Jacksons of Co. Down: Robert, Henry, & James. Also of possible significance is the attention paid to this line by Tenison Arthur Groves (abt 1864-1938), a researcher whose main focus was in Northern Ireland. The estimated 1670 DOB for the Robert JACKSON husband of Bridget is a close fit for the estimated DOB of 1678 of the Robert JACKSON grandson of Robert JACKSON (1619-1679) whose daughter Janet JACKSON married a John JACKSON. This is all circumstantial, but the link is becoming more likely.

Grange, Parish Siekieran

 

 

My tentative theory at present, is that the first known ancestor in this tree was possibly connected to the Robert JACKSON (1619-1679) of County Down. There is no absolute proof, but there is at least enough circumstantial evidence to build a case for it.

· The estimated birth date for Quarter-Master Robert JACKSON of 1670 of Grange, Kings Co. is close to the birth date of the Robert JACKSON b 1678 of Dundonald, Co. Down.

· Robert JACKSON baptized Dec 24, 1678  of Co. Down disappears from Co. Down records with no explanation. His parents were John JACKSON (1639-1716) of Ballyskeagh, Co. Down (his father is unknown) and Janet JACKSON (abt 1641-1695) daughter of a Robert JACKSON (abt 1619-1679) who came to Ireland at the same time as two Quaker JACKSONs. The husband and wife John & Janet were likely cousins of some ilk. The 1678 Robert JACKSON does not appear in Co. Down family graves, nor in any of the family bequest or land transfers (and there are lots) and there also is no record of emigration.

· These Co. Down JACKSONs were of a similar social class as the JACKSONs of Seirkieran and Grange.

· Similar naming patterns are echoed in each family.

· They share connections to cloth related industries.

· Although Tenison Arthur Grove (1863-1938) died in Dublin, his roots were in the North and may of the families who he was hired to research had connections to the North and he included these JACKSONs in his searches. SEE: My notes of JACKSONs in  PRONI-T808. They are well worth a careful read.

· ECHLINs and other landowners who held land in both Co. Down & Kings Co.

· NOTE: The box tomb where James Jackson (1648-1711) was buried at Movilla, Co. Down included the "arms": A chevron with three mullets and in the base a hand holding a sword.  His father was a John or a Robert JACKSON. What is intriguing is that this description is the same as the BENNETT-JACKSONs. Of Glanbeg & Ballyduff. It is not impossible that this could mean a link between the tree of Jacksons of Co. Down and the Jacksons of Waterford & Cork

MISC DOCS

A story about JACKSONs in 4th regiment of Horse "An Eyewitness Source" may be connected to the first Robert JACKSON. .

Quarter-master Jackson was the son of a Quarter-master in the regiment. His father not having the means of providing for him, the young fellow went on board a man-of-war in a fleet going to the Mediterranean. A party of the crew made a descent on the coast of Spain: this was in 1734. The party was surprised, and Jackson made prisoner by the Spaniards. In order to obtain his liberty from a gaol, after twelve months captivity, he enlisted in the Spanish army, and the year following, being in command on the coast of Spain, his party was surprised by the Moors; he was made prisoner, carried to Oran in Barbary, and exhibited as a slave for sale; the English Consul seeing something in his appearance that made him suspect he was his countryman, spoke to him, and finding him a British subject, purchased him, brought him home to his house, and made him superintendant of his family. After some years, he obtained his discharge, returned to Ireland, and found his father still living. Lord Ligonier permitted the old man to resign his warrant to his son.

 

Some time after this, the regiment being upon Dublin duty, Jackson, in passing through the Castle-yard, observed a soldier standing sentinel at the gate, and perceived that as he walked by, the soldier turned his face from him, as if to conceal himself. Jackson returning to the barrack, found himself unusually distressed, He could not banish the idea of this same sentinel out of his mind; he had an anxiety that he could not account for or suppress, to know who he was; and going next morning to the Castle, he waited the relief of the guard, and found the man that he wanted. Jackson addressed him, told him that his face was familiar to him, and begged to know where he had seen him before: in short, in this soldier, he found his protector the Consul of Oran, who had redeemed him from slavery. The account that he gave of this extraordinary reverse of fortune, was, that shortly after they had parted, his affairs ran into confusion; he had out-run his allowance; had overdrawn, was recalled, and obliged to return to England, where, upon his arrival he enlisted with the first recruiting party that he met, and now was a soldier with his fortune in his knapsack. Jackson made every return in his power to his benefactor: obtained his discharge from the infantry, had him appointed a trooper in the Blacks, and shared his pay with him. But in the course of six months the unfortunate Consul died of brandy and a broken heart.

D. 24,155-60 National Library. Six deeds relating to property at Cumber, King's Co., and concerning Morley Saunders and Robert Jackson, with a few associated notes, 1724 - 1802.

Take notice that by deed of release bearing date on or about the seventh day of November 1724, Robert Saunders formerly of Newtown Saunders did demise unto Richard Lamb then of Cumer all that northwest part of the lands of Cumer.

And that by deed of renewal bearing date on or about the 22nd day of August 1755, Morley Pendred Saunders did renew to Robert Jackson the time in terms of the said lease by adding two new lives thereto in place of two lives that had been lately dropped and that all right title and interest in said lands as is alleged of the said Robert Saunders having now vested in you and all the right to the interest, and benefit of renewal, of Robert Jackson and otherwise in the said before mentioned lease and renewal having and now is vested in me, and the three lives in said lease and renewal having lately dropped, and having frequently heretofore called upon you for a renewal of said lease and you having refuse to execute same though bound to do so by the covenant for renewal in said lease.

Septemial [?] fines and interest thereon from the day of the death of each life in said lease and renewal mentioned. And all costs which you may claim due to you. And which you have put me to, up to this day. On your executing to me, such renewal. And I hereby give you further notice, that I have preferred a bill of complaint, in his Majesty's High Court of Chancery of Ireland to prevent you from injuring dispossessing me in the possession of said lands and also to oblige it to execute to me such renewal without heaping costs and interest of said fines on me. And as the relief sought by said bill is for these purposes expressly mentioned. All proceedings thereon by me will cease if you will forthwith execute such renewal and appoint a time and place where I shall attend you for these purposes. And except as these my fair instant and reasonable offers all further costs and litigation in and about the premises, at will then cease. And by your not complying with this my notice and offers hereby made I shall be under the necessity of preceding on said bill, in said Court then all the costs and expenses and accumulation of interest on said before mentioned fines that shall after the [?] hereof incurred in and about this business will be occasioned entirely at your own risk and seeking and at your peril. And that I shall apply and seek for such further redress in that case in and about the premises as I may be advised.
