Chris and Heywood.    Have not been active in my research for some time due to illness.  However, your posts have motivated me to have a look in my files and this is what I have on Jacoleum.

I am inclined to think Heywood has hit the nail on the head with Jacobus (James)   and that he may have died hence the name being given to James in 1863.   Note the use of the old name of Dorney.

Many thanks and best regards to you both.

A cousin in the USA has come across a birth or baptismal record of an ancestor born in Wexford with the forename of Jacoleum.   Has anyone come across this name before or have any idea of its origin and meaning.
