    1. [BOSTON] OFF TOPIC Saugus Lookup
    2. Joy & Rob
    3. Hi Sorry for the off topic post, but can someone tell me how I would go about chasing more about this fellow. Please bear in mind that I live in Melbourne Australia. William JACKSON born I think in Middlewich Cheshire 1775 but probably moved to Manchester in Lancashire from where he then came to America. I have inadvertently lost the actual date of his death. I know in was 1829. It was from a vital index on the Saugus list that I was given the date. Obituary for William Jackson from Saugus Newspaper. DEATH "At Saugus on Sunday, WILLIAM JACKSON ESQ., Aged 59. He was a representative of that town in the General Court, and for two or three was past had labored under such severe disposition that he was detained from his ??? and had been unable to return to his family till the day of his decease. He was a native of Manchester, in England; and was an uncommon instance of a foreigner obtaining a seat in our State Legislature. For two or three years past he had been an acting magistrate in the county. Now I assume that to be part of the State Legislature that he would have had to be naturalised. How would I find out where and when. Now back to Boston topic. Also chasing any PEERS family members. In particular I have been given a 1920 Census entry for Robena M PEERS living in East Boston. She is the mother in law of Elias Andrew MALONE, and the mother of Helena MALONE nee PEERS. I am trying to find any children of Robena and her husband John Edward PEERS who married in 1875. Found them on the 1880 Census but not from then on. Hope someone can help with the above queries. Regards Joy Light - Melbourne Australia
