Nailing down the whereabouts of townlands that various JACKSONs took ownership of in Ireland post 1641 is the first step to being able to connect them to later JACKSON leases, as well as to future possible interconnections between the various lines of JACKSONs. The Irish Records commission coupled with records on the Trinity University Down mapping project has been revealing.

SUMMARY WITH MAPS
NOTE: A curious omission in the Irish
Records Commission 14th & 15th is any mention of the
holdings of Isaac JACKSON in Co. Meath (Oristown,
(1,835 acres of it is now known as Baile
Órthaí), Parish of Teltown It was one of the holdings of Samuel JACKSON
(1641-1706) mentioned in his 1705
will. Fyanstown,
Parish Donaghpatrick is on the western border of Oristown aka Baile
Órthaí, Parish Teltown.
Townland of FYANSTOWN
Down Survey Name: Oristowne
1641 Owner(s): Barnwell
of Brymore (Catholic)
1670 Owner(s): James
Duke of York (Protestant); Barnewall,
Matthias Baron Trimleston (Catholic); Jackson,
Captain Isaack (Protestant)
County: Meath
Barony: Kells
Parish: Donnaghpatricke
Profitable land: 868 plantation acres
Forfeited: 868 plantation acres
NOTE: Fyanstown, Parish Donaghpatrick, Barony of Upper Kells, Co. Meath is on the western border of Oristown aka Baile Órthaí, Parish Teltown. SERIOUS HUNCH: Worth exploring: Since Isaak JACKSON was a Quaker, this could lead to the Quaker JACKSONs having more than business relationships with Samuel JACKSON and his family. They may be related.
