NOTE: This may be the Francis JACKSON d 1744, 2nd surviving son of Thomas JACKSON of Duddington Hall. [4] Sarah ROSE For a ROSE-JACKSON connection see Deed: 338-606-393153. Deed: 8-213-2632. 1756 May 3: In order to pay off £2000 as part of indebtedness to Samuel STOCK, Gent of Dublin City, Luke STOCK, Hosier of Dublin City for £110 advanced by Samuel STOCK, assigned Samuel STOCK the 2 sd leases in which he was vested. Sarah SYM orse ROSE Sarah SYM, Spinster John FERGUSON, Merchant & Anne FERGUSSON, wife of John FERGUSSON unto Luke STOCK of shop under which William BEBBY then dwelt, lately in poss of Thomas ROSE, on west side of street leading to Essex Bridge & south side of Back Quay "Caple Quay" suburbs of Dublin with back front & 3 sets of stairs of William BEBBY's house, with wareroom cellars being in back pt of Mr. NIXON's house on sd Quay from 15 July then last for 62 years at £33 ster. 1780 Dec 6 Charles WARNER, Shoemaker unto William Duke MOIRE, Jeweller new dwelling house with vault on west side of street leading to Essex bridge bound on north & west by house of Samuel STOCK, on east by Kings pavement, on south by house of JACKSON, in manner as lately held by Mr. Isaac NEWTON and now held by Charles WARNER, to hold unto William Duke MOIRE from 25 March then next for 36 years at £70 ster rent [5] Josiah JACKSON. Of great interest to me, is a deed that ties Robert JACKSON of Crooked Staff, Dublin, a tanner, to Josiah JACKSON. JACKSON-JACKSON Book Index 1708-1738. Deed: 43-421-28800. Indenture May 6, 1724 Wm. JAMES of Athy. Co. Kildare, Tanner did demise & set to Robert JACKSON of Crooked Staff in Co. Dublin Tanner and Josiah JACKSON of Glassholly, Co. Kildare Farmer lease of house in Athy from Robert JACKSON to Josiah JACKSON for 22 years [6] Glassceily is likely is likely Glassely, Barony of Narragh & Reban East, Co. Kildare - where so many JACKSONs resided. SEE: Jacksons of Kildare. [7] Grace JACKSON [8] Anne JACKSON, according to this diary, died before 1747. [9] Susannah JACKSON [10] Sarah JACKSON [11] Josiah JACKSON. Given the convergence of geography and time-frame, I wonder if this is the Josiah JACKSON who married Mary ALCOCK in 1760, and if so, if he is related to the JACKSONs of Nashe’s Quarter. SEE also: Jacksons of Dublin. [12] Samuel JACKSON, according to this diary, died before 1747. [13] Katherine JACKSON
