    3. Within the Will of William Jackson dated 1 Oct 1792, probated Nov. Term of 1792 - his wife's name was given as "Margaret" - Searching for marriage documentation of said marriage possibly to a Margaret Wilson (many Wilson's) signed as Witness as well as executor of William's Will or possibly a Margaret Lavingston/Livingston or possibly both! William believed to have migrated from Chester/Bucks Counties Pennsylvania - Within the 1753 tax list of Londongrove, Chester Co., PA the following were listed: Jno Wilson, John Ross, Wm. Jackson and Jos. Jackson William located in Guilford Co., NC as early as 1774 when his daughter, Mary Jackson, married Joseph Summars/Summers on 2 Aug 1774 (Marriage Bond #000060131/Record #03 433 Guilford Co., NC). This same Joseph Summers was also mentioned within William's will as "my son-in-law", as was Andrew Jackson, shown as "my son". William Jackson's property was next to a John Ross within Guilford Co., NC. On 20 June 1759, a John Ross of Middlesex, is shown to marry Sarah Jackson, of Woodbridge (both communities within Middlesex County, New Jersey. (Is this the same John Ross living next to William Jackson in Guilford Co., NC? Is the Sarah Jackson who married John Ross, a daughter or sister of William? By 1800, there was a Joseph Jackson living next door to William's son, Andrew Jackson (b. 1767-1770) - These same names show up within the 1752 tax list of Londongrove, Chester Co., PA - coincidence? The Summers family migrated into Sumner Co., TN for a few years then on into Illinois. William's son, Andrew Jackson who married Nancy Bridges 5 March 1792 in Guilford County, NC - Bond #000056641; Record #02 225; Bondsman Joseph Sumers, was shown as HH in 1800 census of Guilford Co., TN with 2 sons under 10 (John & Jonathan) migrated into Jackson County,TN and was shown within 1820 census (he could well have been there much earlier - 1790, 1800 and 1810 census of TN LOST). Any clues, Bible Records, etc. leading toward documenting marriage(s) of the above William Jackson to Margaret Lavingston/Livingston and/or Margaret Wilson is appreciated. Evyonne
