Hi, I received this from another list last year and saved it. Hope it helps someone. Ken <Who was looking for President Andrew Jackson's line? Andrew Jackson Jr. and Andrew Jackson Donaldson were the two children adopted by President Andrew ( born est 1767 in Waxhaw, Lancster, SC, Married January 17, 1794 in Nashville, TN and died June 8, 1845 in Hermitage, TN) & his wife Rachel Donaldson b. 6/15/1767 in Nashville, Tennesse d. December 22, 1828 in Hermitage, Tennesse (I've been told that she was Scot-Irish). Both children were actually orphaned relatives. Both lived in the White House. Andrew Jackson Donaldson married Emily (a neice of Rachel) and had 4 children in the White House. President Andrew Jackson's father was Andrew Jackson b. est. 1720 d. March 1, 1767 in Virginia and m est 1760 to Elizabeth Hutchinson b. est 1737 in Belfast, Ireland d. Nov. 2, 1781 in Charleston, SC Andrew's parents were Dr. Joseph Jackson and Elizabeth Vance b. est 1680 in Belfast, Ireland (She goes back quiet a ways in Ulster, Ireland) Dr. Joseph Jackson's father was John Jackson m. Katherine McKinley. John Jackson's father was John Jackson b. 12-2-1624 who emmiagrated from England as an infant with his parents to Jamestown, VA on the ship "Warwick" John's parents were Sir Anthony "John" Jackson b. est 1599 in England m. est 1623 in England to Ann b. est 1605 in England. Sir Anthony "John" Jackson's parents were Richard Jackson b. est 2/26/1471 in Landcaster, Eng. m. Ursula Hilyard b. est 1577 in Beverly, Yorkshire, England. Richard's parents were Sir Anthony Jackson be. est 1546 in England and Margaret Frobisher b. est 1547 in Alofts, Yorkshire, England. ( sister to Sir Admiral Martin Frobisher, the English explorer who covered himself with glory when England destroyed the Spanish Armada. The rest goes back into more of England history. So President Jackson was (Ulster) Irish from his Mother's and his Grandmother's side. Somewhere I heard there are a large percentage of American Presidents with Ulster heritage.
