I love the joke, /I may be slow, but my work is poor./ Perhaps it will apply to the most recent work I have done on deeds. Thanks to a couple of people who ascribe to the sensibility of RAOGK (Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness), I have been able to make a bit more progress on a number of fronts. I have posted a deed dated 1773 May 1. The footnotes I have added reference other work that I did before on other deeds. The transcription is thanks to Dawn in Dublin. Names and places mentioned: Rev. George JACKSON of Stabannon, Co. Louth; Capt. Jonathon Bowes BENSON; Charles BROUGHTON; Jonathon COURTNEY; Edward COURTNEY; Nathanial LOW aka LOWE of Loweville, Co. Galway; Fownes JACKSON; Joseph HAYDEN; James POE. OTHER PLACES: Tully, Parish of Louth. This deed encouraged me to put together a half dozen pages of evidence that I have accumulated on the JACKSONs of Steeple, Co. Antrim This line of JACKSONs has pricked my curiosity on two counts.: Firstly, the earliest known George JACKSON of Steeple, Co. Antrim is referred to as a Gent, and a successful merchant, and he was also probably associated with the leather trade - aka a cordwainer. There were also a significant number of other JACKSONs in the leather trades in Ireland in this time frame, and whose holdings suggest that they shared a similar social status: Gilbert JACKSON (1677-1723) and James JACKSON (1669-1711) both of Co. Down; Joseph JACKSON in Co. Monaghan (father of Richard JACKSON 1769-1836); Robert JACKSON (abt 1650-1711) of Crooked Staff in Dublin; William JACKSON of Killmainhorn, Co. Dublin; Daniel JACKSON of Athy, Co. Kildare in a 1709 deed; and Richard JACKSON active in shipping tanned goods in the late 1600s in Drogheda. Then, since I was mopping up anyway, I updated the JACKSONs of Santry. Significant new facts have been added to this family tree, thanks to some research mailed to me from Linde in Dublin. These bits of research not only connect to those seeking JACKSONs, but also to dozens of other people connected with them in many counties in Ireland through either business interests or family relationships. These JACKSONs did get around. The easiest way to access this info is to go to my website (link beneath) and hit the NEW hyperlink in the hyperlink banner near the top of the page. As always, I appreciate learning about any errors I may have made -- no matter how seemingly trivial -- and also appreciate being able to add info to the footnotes.

My great grandfather William PH also had name variations...Wilson P., William P., William H., William P.H., Wilson P.H. and last name variations of Rambo, Rambeau, Rambeaux. William PH married Ruth Henderson and their son, Archie Rambeau is my Grandfather. He and my grandmother, Dorothy Annette McMichael attended Coffeyville High School in Kansas. William Patterson Hunt Rambeaux then divorced Ruth Henderson while Archie, her son was an infant and moved to Red Bluff, Nebraska and married Ruby Hannah.

The discussion about the pros and cons of FTDNA vs Ancestry is almost complete except for the point that FTDNA can provide 111 marker test where as Ancestry has only about 40 markers. The more information you have via the DNA test the better you can identify different branches of your lineage. For instance, in the Hempstead Jackson grouping we now have 30 participants. They represent three separate branches of this lineage. One branch came from England to New England and subsequently to Hempstead NY. Another migrated from England to Virginia at least as early as the previous branch. And the most recent is the branch that came to America via a British Red Coat in the Revolutionary war, then changed sides and stayed. Unique mutations in the 67 marker test has enabled us to distingush at least one separate sub-branch in this lineage. We have one participant that has tested at Ancestry that is related to the Hempstead lineage, but because of the limited number of markers at this testing site we cannot determine what branch he belongs to.
