1864 March 26.
NOTE: There are two Memorials of Deeds that relate to this deed: ROD 15 44 6704 and ROD 15 44 6706. I have referred to them in the footnotes. What is curious is that the deed number between them – ROD 15 44 6705 - is of a deed that relates to another line of JACKSONs – Robert JACKSON, a tanner in Dublin and his widow Joyce - it may be that there is a more than circumstantial connection.
Whereas, by indenture of lease, bearing date the 14th day of August, 1715[1], Thomas Bligh[2], Esq., demised on to John Sheils[3] and James Wright[4] all that part of Lisnagrogh[5], being part of the 16 polls of Ballynatinuff[6], then in the possession of the said John Sheils and James Wright, containing about 80 acres, be the same more or less, situate in the Barony of Lower Kells, and County of Meath, for the term of three lives therein named, with a covenant for perpetual renewal. And whereas several renewals of said lease have been executed, the last of which bears date the 16th day of June 1791, and was made by Thomas Cherburgh Bligh[7], in whom the Lessor’s interest was then vested, to James Dyas[8], Arthur Irwin[9], and William Sheils[10]; and whereas all the lives named in the said renewal have long since died. And whereas the said Thomas Cherburgh Bligh died in the year 1836, having by his will, dated 12th day of June, 1834, devised the said lands, amongst others, to Edward Earl of Darnly[11], the honourable Edward Bligh, and Sir Ralph Howard[12], as trustees thereof, upon the trusts in said will mentioned. And whereas the said Edward Darnley and the Honorable Edward Bligh subsequently died leaving the said Sir Ralph Howard then surviving. Now I, Charles William Hamilton[13], of number 40, Lower Dominick street, in the city of Dublin, as agent for and on behalf of the said Sir Ralph Howard, require you or other the party or parties entitled to the lessees interest in the said lands, forthwith to renew the said lease, and to pay to the said Sir Ralph Howard all Renewal Fines, Septennial Fines and interest, which have accrued due to him by the fall of the said lives, pursuant to the Covenant for Perpetual Renewal contained in the said lease, otherwise you and all other persons will hereafter be precluded from all right of renewal. -- dated this 26th day of March, 1864.
CHARLES WILLIAM HAMILTON. To
Gordon Jackson[14], Thomas Jackson[15], Senior, Thomas Jackson[16], Junior, Lisnabo, Kings Court; Philip M’Cormick[17], Kings Court; John M’Enany[18], Kings Court; and all others whom it may concern, Thomas Tughe Mecredy[19], Solicitor, 7, Inns-quay, Dublin.

NOTE: I haven’t a clue. [6] Ballynatinuff, Barony of Kells, Co. Meath . NOTE: I haven’t a clue. [7] Thomas Cherburgh BLIGH d. 1836. Son of Very Rev. Robert BLIGH and Frances WINTHROP. He lived at Brittas, Co. Meath. He was a grandson of Rt. Hon Thomas BLIGH and Elizabeth NAPER [8] James DYAS. I would suspect he was related to the DYAS family that connected with this JACKSON family in America. Sarah JACKSON (1820-1850), daughter of Hugh JACKSON and Alicia BELL married an Alexander Jackson DYAS, son of John DYAS (1782-1862), husband of Mary JACKSON (1788-1849). They were of New Orleans and Nashville, America, but it would seem that the family connections may have gone back to earlier links in Ireland.
