I am getting tantalizingly close to being able to click a number of these people into a family tree. At present, I have a stub of a tree including a number of JACKSONs from Woodfield aka Woodfieldglen in Co. Wicklow. If readers know more, it shouldn't take much to make a larger leap.

effects £210 1s 7d NOTE: I have placed him as Richard
JACKSON (1860-1902) - in tree I have started
concerning Kiltegan JACKSONs. I may not have him in the right place. It may
that Eliza is his mother. I have no record of him being married. Baltinglass
has several JACKSON references:
· Mount Lucas, Baltinglass was the residence of a Capt.
Jackson, commanding extensive mountain views and the scenery of the
valley.
· In the year 1820 there were two breweries in Baltinglass;
but they had disappeared before 1830. One was owned by a William Jackson, who
was known by the name Dandy Jackson; he always wore solid gold buttons on his
coat and knee breeches. |
