HI to all my fellow members at RC.
I'm back on the trail of my elusive Irish rellies who do have a habit of wandering all over the place
been keeping busy during lockdown over here for our lovely virus pandemic.
I recently received an email from a fellow researcher in Texas.USA. who it turns out has an Irish rellie
married into mine so he asked for some data. I have gone back to Rothesay where I knew my Jackson family were Stocking-Hosiery workers I also bought a birth cert from SP. to confirm address so here is what I'm looking for in the missing dept.
George Jackson born 20 July 1855 Res; 6 Montague St Rothesay Father James Jackson age 33yrs
James born Kill
writing soooo bad can't make it out County of Sligo Ireland Mother.
Susan Woodland age 31yrs born 7 April 1822
married 1839 Cty.Sligo james Jackson signed register 30 July 1855
My research has them with children all born Sligo Ire. Elizabeth 1842.John 1844.james 1845.
Mary 1847.Susan Woodland Jackson 1849.
George 1855 Rothesay Bute .Ann Jane 1857 Rothesay Isabella 10 Jan 1859 Rothesay deceased
early 1860.
I found the Jackson family on 1861 Census for Rothesay at 87 Montague St weavers to trade
wife Susan is now a widow so I've been looking everywhere for when James Jackson died .He was listed as a Military Soldier Pensioner after birth of son George so I'm wondering if he may have been in the Irish Regiment of Foot Soldiers and later known as a Chelsea Pensioner.he appears to have died by 1861.Spouse Susan moved back to Bridgeton Glas with the kids and 15th Sept 1868 remarried a widower named John Pritchard he born 1827 Irvine Ayrshire and had abt '8' kids.
they all lived at 49 Oswald St Bridgeton Glas. John also Weaver in cotton mills.
So can anyone help find when James Jackson died
where is he buried
I can't find him on SP. either
appreciate all your help as always thanks a bunch. :
Kind regards;
Janey.
