1782 Sept 7 JACKSON, Robert - OLIVER DEED: 360-236-242429 [NOTE: In my initial transcription - I was unsure about whether the second name was LEAVER or SEAVER, but Armagh probates and other deeds lead me to believe SEAVER.]

[1] Robert JACKSON. NOTE: I will add his data later after I have done the JACKSON side of this story.

Arthur OLIVER. He seems to be related to Benjamin OLIVER of Lislooney. More
work on deeds and other resources is needed.
[3] AKA Ballinahonebeg also known as Ballynahonebeg is a townland in the Parish of Lisnadill bordered by Farmacaffley, The Kennedies, Ballyards, Moneypatrick. Umgola touches at the northern tip. All these townlands are significant with respect to several other OLIVER leases. [4] Sarah SEAVER. Wife of Charles SEAVER. Sarah SEAVER had a will probated 1792.His wife's name was Sarah Hewetson. SOURCE Email July 10, 2009 from BG Wright: This information is found in the FHL film no: 1279330, Item 15, Title of record: Seaver Family which was compiled by Philip Crossle "in the year 1909". Also, there is a pedigree chart of the Seaver Family on the FHL film no: 259178, Transcript No: T822 which is where I originally found this information. [5] Charles SEAVER. NOTE: In 1762, a will for a Charles SEAVER was probated. NOTE: A Nicholas SAVER was registered in the 1663 Hearth Rolls Records at Ballyaghy. I would expect him to be a relation if not also an ancestor. [6] Thomas VERNER. I have not done any work on this, but VERNER is a name that crops up in many leases both in Armagh & Monaghan. [7] The mention of Benjamin OLIVER deceased is interesting given the Benjamin OLIVER of Lislooney who was the witness. Perhaps the deceased Benjamin OLIVER was the father of the second Benjamin OLIVER. Also of note, is a William OLIVER of Lislooney DEED 24787 from Nov 23 1723. [8] Henry HALL
[9]
Elinor HALL. I wonder if she night have been
an OLIVER or a JACKSON. There
are unaccounted for “Elinor OLIVERs”.
[10]
Edward TIPPING. The TIPPING family was one of the landlord families that the JACKSONs
had other dealings and intermarriages with . SOURCE:
1830 Sept 2nd lease concerning Elizabeth JACKSON (grandmother
of Sir Thoams JACKSON) mentions: Edward Tipping of Mounthill in
the County of Armagh Esquire and Catherine Tipping otherwise Hall
his wife. SOURCE: A Historical & Statistical Account of
the Barony of Upper Fews . John DONALDSON “About the
year 1733 several landed proprietors in the Parish of Creggan – to
wit Edward TIPPING, Alex HAMILTON, James McCULLAGH, Adam NOBLE,
and Randle DONALDSON, Esquires invited Presbyterians to settle on
their prospective estates”
[11]
Aughereny. This is a townland that does not
occur in modern nomenclature, but it would seem that Clogher Parish
would be a reasonable inference as to its location.
[12]
Benjamin OLIVER.
His son was James OLIVER SOURCE: Deed
534280 April 1824 mentions
James OLIVER of City of Armagh, merchant a son of Benjamin OLIVER
who had a lease on lands in Lislooney. He would also have some relation
to Arthur OLIVER. SOURCE: Deed 1853-10-214 Refers
to Lislooney lands formerly in the possession of Benjamin & Arthur
OLIVER
[13] Lislooney is a townland in Tynan Parish – significantly, it is very close to Derryhaw (another townland frequently referred to in OLIVER leases of the time).
