JACKSONs of Artnagullion & Islandmagee Co. Antrim.
JACKSONs of Artnagullion & Islandmagee Co. Antrim. A major update: https://www.thesilverbowl.com/familytree/JACKSONs-Artnagullion-Islandmagee-ANTRIM.html The JACKSONs in this tree are also mentioned in leases and other records connected to the JACKSONs of Steeple and Loonburn. The exact link is yet to be nailed down. In time, more links to other JACKSON trees will be proven to either be valid or invalid, or left in the territory of "dunno": SEE: JACKSONS of JACKSONs of Kirkby Lonsdale, Westmorland and Coleraine, Londonderry, Dublin (several trees), Jacksons of Tobermore and more.

JACKSONs & Townland clusters in Ireland
It has been far too long since I posted anything substantive on my website. Although my work has been proceeding at a glacial pace, much of it - like an iceberg - has been added underwater and is substantive. The results will soon be included in a number of shorter pieces (this one is 21 pages long - ARGH!). In Townland Clusters ¨C a tool for unearthing women¡¯s history - I have assembled a timeline which includes clusters of holdings which Abigail JACKSON (1683-1763) held in Dublin, Cavan, Meath and Monaghan, and which were mentioned in her January 5, 1737 marriage settlement (I have included extensive notes on it). These holdings echoed the holdings listed in the will of Samuel JACKSON (1705) of Dublin. This marriage memorial was recorded 31 years after the death of her uncle Samuel JACKSON - when she was 54 years old and her (second) husband Oliver CROFTON (1710-1780) was 27 years old. In a later piece, which I am still working on, I will say more about Abigail & Oliver, and their most unusual marriage. https://www.thesilverbowl.com/history/Townland%20Clusters-Samuel%20JACKSON-Abigail%20JACKSON.html

Rev. Richard JACKSON (1602-1681)
This is my latest blog post: It took a lot of deft maneuvering for Rev. Richard JACKSON (1602-1681) to hold on to his financial assets, many of which had become seriously diminished by the mid-1600s. It was one hot mess of a time to be living in - with the collision of cultural-financial-religious power struggles reaching their peak in both England and Ireland. Even so, at the end of his life, he was able to pass on significant wealth to many of his 23 children, most of whom had lived to adulthood and many of whom had settled in Ireland (his 1st wife Dorothy OTWAY was mother of the first 15 children and died abt 1645; his 2nd wife Jane CARTER gave birth to the remaining 8 children). In the lives of his surviving children, the uplift from his financial legacy, as well as the contribution of his mercantile, church and government connections are clear. Many of his descendants went on to exercise considerable political and economic power in Ireland for at least the next couple of hundred years. https://sharonoddiebrown.blogspot.com/2025/03/rev-richard-jackson-1602-1681.html
