The land grants to Edmond JACKSON at Corluddy, Portnascully, and Dungooly, all in Co. Kilkenny were key to assembling this tree. Bethams Abstracts filled in some of the gaps. Was he the Capt. JACKSON who had been dislodged from Co. Antrim? Was he a Royalist, or was he one of those who was caught up in the sweep when the government was transporting all Presbyterians from Antrim & Down in 1653? There is much that I do not know here.

Update August 21, 2019 Added Mary HAYDON and daughters. |
2019 Family tree: JACKSONs Co. Kilkenny - Corluddy, Portnascully, and Dungooly.
Why did this
family end up in Tipperary, and where did they come from?
One clue comes from an unexpected source: The Declaration
by the Commissioners for the settling and securing the Province of Ulster;
dated at Carrickfergus, the 23rd of May, 1653.
It included names of Presbyterian landholders and others who were to be
removed from Ulster into Leinster and Munster, in 1653. One of those
names was a Capt. JACKSON. He had been a resident lease holder at Shanes
Castle, Largy or Toome Quarters. It is possible that he was the Edmond JACKSON who was granted lands at Corluddy, Portnascully,
and Dungooly,
all in Co. Kilkenny (Province of Leinster) are right on the western
border of Waterford (Province of Munster).
Given the mention of Shane’s Castle, a connection to Jacksons of Steeple & Loonburn & Islandmagee -
Antrim is possible. So is a connection to the JACKSONs of Kirkby Lonsdale, Westmorland and Coleraine,
Londonderry |
One of the versions of my family history: The Jacksons
came to Ireland with Cromwell (or so grandfather believed) & were given
large grants of land in Co. Carlow & Kilkenny called Mount
Leinster, Borris … SOURCE: Blin Brown’s (1886-1963) 1938
Notes on Family History NOTE: Could this be
a case where the oral history slipped a cog? Or not? |
NOTE: This sheds doubt on some dates that I have beneath for John JACKSON based on Betham's Abstracts:
JACKSON John, of Corlody, Co. Kilkenny, dat. 1 May 1775. proved at Ossu..
6 April 1776.
To my wife Elizabeth £600 p.a. for life and my estates during the minority of my eldest son Charles Jackson. £600 each to my two younger sons. Barnaby Jackson and Kearon Reeves Jackson at age of 21. £200 to Francis Branigan of Mylodestown, Co. Tipperary. £50 to Dr George Branigan. |

The
commissioners in Dublin, however, having cheerfully submitted
to the new
council of state, and the commissions of the
subordinate
courts having been renewed throughout the kingdom,
the
original design of removing 'all the popular Scotts'
out of
Ulster was immediately resumed. A proclamation was
published by
" the commissioners for the settling and secur-
ing the
province of Ulster," specifying the conditions on
which it was
proposed to transplant the leading presbyterians
in the
counties of Down and Antrim to certain districts in
Munster. This proclamation was accompanied with a list of
two
hundred and sixty persons,—including all those who, by
their
known attachment to monarchical and presbyterian principles,
and by
their station or influence, were most obnoxious
to the
reigning faction,—who were required, within a specified
time, and
under certain penalties, to embrace the terms now
offered.
The proposals of the commissioners for effecting
this
extensive revolution in the population and property of a
a great part
of Ulster having been hitherto unrecorded, no
apology will
be necessary for embodying them in the history
of the province
to which they refer.*
*A copy of
this proclamation, signed hy Robert Venables, Arthur Hill,
William
Allen, Henry Jones, and Anthony Morgan, and printed on a broadside
by "William
Bladen, Dublin, Anno Domini, 1653," I was fortunate
enough to
meet with in the British Museum. In the Appendix, No. XIII .
I have
inserted the list of persons annexed to it, forming a very curious
and valuable
document, from its exhibiting the names of the more noted and
influential
presbyterians then residing in the respective districts of Down
and Antrim.
Unnamed JACKSON.
It is possible that this JACKSON was a descendant of William JACKSON (bef 1560-aft 1592). He had
four children christened at St. Michael’s Parish Church, Whittington, Lancashire.
There is no further mention of this family of JACKSONs, which suggests that the
family moved from the parish after 1592. NOTE: Any one of the sons could
have had a son named Edmond JACKSON. One of my hunches is that the first wife of this William JACKSON sr. died sometime after they had
relocated to Kirkby Lonsdale. There is a burial record that could be her:
- Mrs. ( ), wife of Willi
Jackson bur 5 Mar 1597 Kirkby Lonsdale, Westmorland LDS I03668-8
1471665.
If this hunch proves out, and it may not, then it is possible that Mary SLATER (1575-1626) was the 2nd wife William JACKSON sr..
This marriage resulted in six more children including Rev. Richard JACKSON
(1602-1681) of Kirkby Lonsdale. He was later the rector of Whittington. Several
of his children lived in Coleraine and elsewhere in Ireland in the mid-1600s.
1-William JACKSON b.
Bef 1560, d. After 1592
NOTE:
There is no recorded death date for William JACKSON at Whittington Church.
It would have been after 1592, the birth of his son William JACKSON. It is
possible that he moved to Kirkby Lonsdale, likely between the birth of his son
William in 1592 and the death of his probably 1st wife in 1597.

NOTE: A Quaker Anthony JACKSON (1628-abt 1690) –who was born possibly
in Ecclestone, Lancashire and who died in Co. Cavan - was possibly related to
the Edmond JACKSON (b. 1580) who was
granted two townlands in Co. Kilkenny and Fyanstown (and possibly Oristown) in
Co. Meath. lands in 1666. Who was this Anthony JACKSON’s
father? Who was Edmond JACKSON’s father?
o This Anthony
JACKSON (1628-abt 1690) had a son Capt
Isaac JACKSON b. 1665 Old Castle Co. Meath, d. 1751 London Grove, Chester, PA,
America. He was a Quaker.
o Samuel JACKSON held leases to lands in Co. Meath, including at
Oristown. He was a son of Rev. Richard JACKSON of Kirkby Lonsdale.
o An Isaac JACKSON held leases in the 1660s to 2 townlands in Co.
Kilkenny, and one in C. Meath. SEE: My
Notes on Irish Record Commission. Was he related to
the Whittington JACKSONs – Edmond or Anthony, or …?
