The Silver Bowl: Jacksons with greyhound and dolphin crest

Beneath are some instances me thinking out loud about the implications of this.

A second account of Robert’s appearance on this continent came from a copy of an 1887 ledger written by a P.A. Jackson: "Robert left England with John Winthrop 1630-31 but which Winthrop is not known. In with the Massachusetts Bay Company, he doubtless was one of the 900 who sailed from Yarmouth on the 7th April 1630. At any rate the Coat of Arms of his family was emblazoned with two greyhounds and a dolphin crested with a mailed arm raising from a m[issal?], in the hand a tilting spear.” SOURCE: The History of Ancestor Robert JACKSON The site has a wealth of maps and other visual elements. It is well worth a visit. The primary source for this snippet was: John Winthrop, Portrait of Massachusetts Bay Colony Governor John Winthrop 17th Century. It was held in the Winthrop family until the 19th century, when it was donated to the American Antiquarian Society, http://www.americanantiquarian.org/Inventories/Portraits/153.htm , additional provenance from the American Antiquarian Society: http://www.americanantiquarian.org/Inventories/Portraits/bios/153.pdf

Transcription Of Lloyd Jacksons Notes HCPB Tradition has it that Robert Jackson came from Watertown Mass. To Mathersfield Conn. Thence to Harford Conn. Thence to Hempstead in 1643 which was perhaps the first English settlement in the western part of Long Island. He had a wife Agnes. His will dated Ref. The Jackson Family Rockaway Records Morris Co. N.J. Page 101-2 Crayon 1902. According to his notes on the Jackson family of Stephen Alonzo Jackson, Robert Jackson left England with John Winthrop in 1630-31 but which John Winthrop is not known. With the Mass. Bay Co. he doubtless was one of the 900 who sailed from Yarmouth on April 7th 1630. At any rate the Coat of Arms of his family was emblazoned with two greyhounds and a dolphin, crested with a mailed arm raising from a mural crown in the hand a tilting spear.

Family of John Jackson John Jackson from Hertfordshire, England was one of the expedition of 1627 for the relief of the Huguenots of La Rochelle and believed to be the father of Robert Jackson [NOTE: 1620-1685 born in Scrooby, Nottinghamshire], the first of the name known to have come to America. Robert Jackson left England with John Winthrop 1630 - 31 but which John Winthrop is not known.

Near the eastern end of the garden, about five rods north of the house, seats for a meeting had been arranged in the shade of the grand old trees, and a stand erected for speakers and appropriately decorated. At the back, in large letters, formed of evergreens on a white ground, appeared the words: "In Honor of our An- cestors." Above this hung a framed drawing, representing on a shield the devices which tradition reports as having been those of the coat of arms of some remote progenitor of the clan, " two greyhounds and a dolphin," SOURCE" Proceedings of the Sesqui-Centennial gathering of the Descendants of Isaac and Ann Jackson

Notes from Joseph Burton Jackson (1920-1962)

NOTE: In an email dated October 20, 2011, Jim Jackson mentioned:

This was his working document and was hand written in a notebook and still includes strike-overs that I am sure he would have fixed had life given him more years. My uncle was a very simple and down to earth man whom the Lord took way too soon. Devout Christian, wonderful husband and father, clerk in a furniture store, talented furniture restorer, and most of all kind and gentle soul.

He was able to get this far without leaving this continent but said to go further he would need to go to England and dig through the old church ledgers, although I have read some internet documents of those who have done just that and found the trail ended with Anthony in England. I suspect you have seen the same documents. Apparently the church records contained a gap of 200 years. All things considered, I think Uncle Burton did a quite remarkable job considering he was a man of modest means with no internet and very little opportunity to travel...

The only thing I would ask is a little feedback on your thoughts after reading his work....
