Kinawley is a small village about 10 miles directly south of Enniskillen. It gives its name to the parish of Kinawley which straddles the border of Fermanagh and Cavan. Kinawley is a 'Y' road junction between 'Graffy' and 'Breens.' The older Richard JACKMAN and his probable brothers, Edward, John, Robert, and William Jackman probably immigrated to the colonies and appear in Washington Co., in western PA, after the American Rev. War. They and their descendants migrated west to Jefferson Co., OH, andthen to IN and IL. The MORTON's probably of Derryvore or Drumboury Townland in the Parish of Kinawley are well represented in the Kinaweley Parish Records from 1768- 1773. Edward Morton was the eldest of the five brothers who went to Philadelphia in 1765. John Morton emigrated to Philadelphia, U.S.A. with his brothers, Edward, William, Richard, and Thomas, in 1765. His parents, William Morton & Mary Downey, also went. Mary Doonan (Downey) the Godmother, was his sister. John Jackman, b. 1745 probably in Ireland, married Margaret MORTON, the daughter of Edward Morton, possibly of Mullaghinchogar, Enniskillen, Ireland. John Jackman had three children married in the St. John's Episcopal Church in Baltimore Co., in 1771. John and Edward Jackman appeared in that county as early as 1768 when they signed a petition against moving the county seat. They probably immigrated together with the MORTONs in 1765.
