The focal point of this piece is the lands in Co Meath mentioned in the 1705 will of Samuel JACKSON (1631-1706). After several generations, these leases ended up being owned by the NORTH family of Jackson Hall, Kirkby Lonsdale, Westmorland.

Samuel JACKSON detective work
Samuel JACKSON was one of the first
generation of a family of JACKSONs who emigrated to Coleraine from Kirby Lonsdale,
Westmorland, England in the mid-1600s, and then to Dublin. Although Samuel
JACKSON had apprenticed with the Drapers Guild, his family gained their
foothold in Ireland as a result of the substantial Clothworkers Guild land
grants. The first members of this family probably first came to Ireland as
early as Elizabethan times. SEE: Timeline of Jacksons of Coleraine.
This Samuel JACKSON was a son of Rev.
Richard JACKSON and his wife Dorothy OTWAY. Rev. Richard JACKSON had a 2nd wife and between the two marriages sired at least 23 children. Many of them as
well as their descendants settled in Ireland. There are still outstanding
questions whether they may also be related to the other JACKSON families who
settled in Drogheda, Lisnabo, Dublin and Coleraine in the late 1600s and early
1700s. It would not be surprising if the Londonderry & Coleraine
JACKSONs turn out to be connected to both the mid-1600s JACKSONs of
Drogheda, as well as the Quaker
JACKSONs whose relations include two known brothers: Anthony JACKSON (1628-
abt 1690) and Richard JACKSON (1626-1679).
The 1705
will of Samuel JACKSON [1631-1706] has been the key to understanding many
of the family connections of his brothers’ descendants. At the time of his
death, Samuel JACKSON held title to several forfeited lands in Co. Meath, and
bequeathed them to family members. They were all in the southernmost part of
the Barony of Lower Kells in the parishes of Kilbeg, Emlagh and Stahlomogh:
- Parish of Kilbeg, Barony of Lower Kells, Co. Meath: townlands of Ardlonan,
& Marvelstown.
- Parish of Staholmog, Barony of Lower Kells, Co. Meath: townlands
of Drakerath aka Drakerath,
Castletown More aka Castletownmoor,,
& Emlagh.
- Parish of Emlagh, Barony of Lower Kells, Co. Meath: Orestown aka Oristown & Reask [Groves transcribed this as Kisk and TGF Paterson as Keske]
BARONY OF LOWER KELLS. CO. MEATH - Three maps
The top three shaded parishes beneath are where the JACKSON of Lisnabo held leases.
The bottom 3 are where Samuel JACKSON and his descendants held leases. The distance from top to bottom is about 13-15 km. |
This map was added in 2015. It clarifies the parishes shown on the right where Samuel JACKSON held leases. |
 |
 |
From top to bottom the green shaded parishes are: Enniskene, Kilmainhan, Nobber (which also continues into the neighbouring Barony of Morgallion), Kilbeg, and Emlagh & Staholnog. Cruisetown, also mentioned in this post is on the eastern border of Kilbeg. NOTE: Newtown was added to the Jackson family holdings sometime btw 1705-1733. |
I have updated what I know about Samuel Jackson's holdings with what I have learned since 2013. In his will, Emlogh was a townland holding, not a parish - but it is also the parish where the townland of Reask is - a townland held by Rev. Robert Jackson, one of Samuel Jackson's nephews. I have also added the Parish of Teltown. |
I made and added the map beneath on November 2, 2018. The pie-shaped leases in the bottom right hand corner inrigue me. It seems that it once contained a water source, but current satellite photos show it to be more of a bog. What is curious is that they are all close to each other, but not all adjacent.
Samuel JACKSON holdings in the Barony of Lower Kells included:
|
 |
In the tables beneath, I have also included some PIPPARD
leases. There are a number of business and marriage connections between
the JACKSONs and PIPPARDS in Drogheda. Both were merchant families, and both
served on the Drogheda Council in the late 1600s. The Rev. Robert JACKSON, mentioned
in dealings with them, was a nephew of the Samuel JACKSON (1631-1706) of Dublin,
who held the earlier leases. He was a son of Nathaniel JACKSON.
Parish of Staholnog, Barony of Lower
Kells. According to the Down Survey Maps, this Parish was owned by James FLEMING sr, Thomas NUGENT, Patrick HUSSEY & Walter DRAKE. John DRAKE owned Drakrath and Thomas NUGENT owned Castletownmore. Between 1641 and 1670, 33 acres of Drakerath were transferred from John DRAKE to Coll Daniell REDMOND. 20 acres of Drishog aka Farranalcock, Parish Kilobeg were transferred from Walter DRAKE to Coll Daniell REDMOND.

My rationale in looking at other JACKSON
holdings in the Barony of Lower Kells is that there may have been block grants
that got divvied up amongst family members. I doubt that it is merely coincidental
that all 6 parishes border one another.
In the Griffiths Valuations, the Lisnabo Jacksons
lease or own several holdings in the northern part of the Barony of Lower Kells:
- Parish of Enniskeen:
- Townland Ballynalurgan. Thomas JACKSON
jun leased abt 103 acres.
- Townland Aghafarnan, Thomnas JACKSON
leased abt 65 acres
- Townland Ballynaclose, Gordon JACKSON
leased abt 34 acres and Thomas JACKSON leased two parcels of abt 25 and
43 acres.
- Townland Boynagh, Thomas JACKSON leased
two parcels of abt 68 & 35 acres, and owned 2 small houses which were
leased to tenants.
- Townland Lisnabo, Thomas JACKSON leased
184 acres, and also owned 2 small houses leased to tenants.
- Townland of Lisnagrow, Thomas Jackson
leased 2 plots of abt 35 & 14 acres, and owned a small house leased
to tenants. Gordon JACKSON leased abt 13 acres
- Parish of Nobber:
- Townland of Rathe, Thomas JACKSON leased
374 acres, and also owned 3 small houses leased to tenants.
- Parish of Kilmainham:
- Townland of Edengora, Henry JACKSON
leased abt 28 acres and a house.
The total of 1021 acres held by the
extended family in these 3 parishes would indicate that the JACKSONs were
amongst the more prosperous farmers in the region. They received passing
mention in the 1834 Lewis
Topographical Dictionary: The principal seats are Cabra castle, the
handsome residence and richly planted demesne of Colonel Pratt; Corinsica, of
J. Pratt, Esq.; Northlands, of the Very Rev. Dean Adams; Newcastle, of J.
Smith, Esq.; Woodford, of J. Armstrong, Esq.; Lisnaboe, of — Jackson,
Esq.; Plantation, of — Irwin, Esq.; Larchfield, of W. Pratt, Esq.; and
Cornakill, of — Moore, Esq.
Some of these JACKSON holdings are
mentioned in much earlier deeds:
