The following was sent yesterday to this list, but seemingly was bounced. The relevancy of the following post to this list is that the Jackson families discussed in these blogs have connections to Jacksons in both England and Ireland. Here is a piece that I have posted on Original JACKSON of Godmanchester: http://sharonoddiebrown.blogspot.com/2011/11/original-jackson.html And another about the home he built: http://sharonoddiebrown.blogspot.com/2011/11/island-hall-in-godmanchester.html Each article has links to a number of primary sources and research that I did in order to write the blog pieces. Tomorrow, I plan to finish the 3rd of this series - Jackson links to Samuel Pepys. -- Sharon Oddie Brown, Roberts Creek, BC, Canada. History Project: www.thesilverbowl.com
