Biography

Arrival and Residence in New England

John Jackson's earliest record in New England is in Cambridge, Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1639, when he was recorded as having purchased land of Miles Ives.[1] His two eldest children, John and Theodocia, who were born before 1645, were not recorded in Cambridge records. For these reasons it is likely that this John Jackson came to New England not in 1635, but in 1639. Several writers, including Savage and Pope, have claimed that this John Jackson arrived in 1635, and have associated him with the passengers whose names were found on passenger lists of the ships Blessing and Defence that arrived in that year.[2]

It appears that he brought considerable means with him, as he bought a house and 18 acres of land in Cambridge Village in 1639.[1] It remained his residence until he died 36 years later. His property was beside the Charles River and close to what is now the Newton/Brighton town line on Nonantum Road.[3] The attached map shows some of the lots he owned.

On 2 June 1641 he took the Freeman's oath in the Massachusetts Bay Colony,[4] and was one of the first Church deacons, chosen in 1664.[5] He gave an acre of land for the Church and a burial place, being the first meeting house built in 1660, and is now part of the Newton East Parish Burying Ground.[6][7]

In 1656 John Jackson & Thomas Wiswall, as deacon & ruling elder, on behalf of the inhabitants of the village, petitioned the General Court to be released from paying for the support of the ministry at Cambridge Church.[8] Jackson was among those who petitioned the General Court to make Cambridge Village a separate town, but it did not happen until after his death.[6]

Family

John was probably married twice. Some unsourced genealogies suggest his first wife's name was Abigail,[9] but no proof has been found. That he had an earlier wife is assumed because Margaret Taft was apparently substantially younger than John, born about 1624 if her age at death is correct. Her earliest child probably would not be born much before 1644. Margaret died on 25 August 1684 aged 60 and was buried in the East Parish Burying Ground in Newton.[10] She was unlikely to have been the mother of his son John born by 1639, when she would have been age 15.

He had by a possible former wife:

  • John, b. by 1639, d. 17 Oct 1675 aged 36 years,[11][12] unmarried and recently deceased in father's estate settlement.[13]
  • Theodocia, married Capt. Noah Wiswall (b. 1638) in 1664, and 2nd, Dea. Samuel L. Newman of Rehoboth (b. 1625). She was born probably 1639-1649 if first married at age 15-25. Her first husband was named in her father's estate settlement.[13]

By wife Margaret Taft:

Death & Legacy

He died on 30 January 1674/5 in Cambridge Village.[25] His legacy, and that of his son Abraham, was commemorated on the 1852 monument placed in the cemetery:[26][27]

Dea. John Jackson gave one acre of land for this Burial Place and First Church, which was erected upon this spot.
Abraham Jackson son of Dea. John gave one acre which two acres form the old part of This Cemetery.

At his death John left an estate of 863 acres, and his old house stood until about 1800.[6]

Administration of his estate was granted to his relict widow, Margaret Jackson, on behalf of herself & children on 16 February 1674[/5].[28] On 06 April 1675, an inventory of his estate was presented, taken on 30 January 1674[/5], appraised by his brother Edward Jackson, Thomas Prentice, Isaac Williams, and Joseph Tayntor. His relict widow attested. He left a substantial estate valued at £1,230. On 20 December 1676, an agreement was reached dividing his land between Margaret Jackson, his widow; Abram Jackson, son on behalf of Deliverance Jackson and Sarah Jackson, two of the daughters; James Trowbridge, Noah Wiswall, Samuel Trusdall, Daniel Preston and Elijah Kendricks in the right of their wives who were the daughters of John Jackson. The agreement was presented at court on 03 April 1677.[13]

Land records

  • 1639, John Jackson bought from Miles Ives a house and 18 acres of land on the south side of the Charles River.[29]
  • 06 Sep 1642, a proprietor's list submitted to the General Court stated that John Jackson then held 14 acres and a house with the river to the north and the highway to the south.[30]
  • 18 October 1647, recorded that John Jackson bought 20 acres from Thomas Danforth on the highway to Roxbury.[31]
  • 10 April 1648, he bought two acres of meadow from Samuell Phillips.[32]
  • 11 June 1648 another three and a half acres from Samuell Phillips.[33]
  • 25 December 1650, common lands recovered of Dedham, were sold to Edward Jackson, Edward Giffe, John Jackson, and Thomas Danforth for £20 according to an agreement by the Town.[34]
  • In the 1652 division of Billerica lands he received another 50 acres, and when he died he left 863 acres.[6]
  • 1662, as a proprietor in the Cambridge lands, his share in the division of that year was three acres.[35]
  • 1664 an additional 20 acres.[36]
  • 25 March 1673 he sold to Daniel Makey of Cambridge, a "schotchman," about two and a half acres by the highway. His wife Margarett Jackson gave her consent.[37]
  • 06 April 1675, his estate inventory also included lands of 68 acres at Weedy HIll, 40 acres at Chestnut Hill, 20 acres at Brush Hill, 50 at Greenland, 20 near the lower falls, 3 near the upper falls, a parcel at Oak Hill of 320 acres, and 220 acres of meadow along the Charles river.[13]

Disputed information

Parents and baptism:
Although it has been published many times[9][38][39] that he was the son of Christopher and Susan (Johnson) Jackson baptised in Stepney parish January 1602, the parish records suggest otherwise. There is a record of a John, son of Christopher Jackson, christened on 06 January 1602/3,[40] but that child died in infancy, 11 January 1602/3.[41]

John's brother Edward, also said to have been born in Stepney parish, is the same situation. The Stepney parish registers record not only the baptism on 03 February 1604/5, but also the infant burial for Edward, son of Christopher of "Bednalgrene" (Bethnal Green) on 28 February 1604/5.[42][43]

First spouse: A 1912 NEHGR "Note" stated that his first wife's name was Abigail.[9] No proof has been found that this is true.

In addition, his two eldest children, who were born before 1645, were not recorded in Cambridge records. For these reasons we do not believe that this John Jackson came to New England in 1635, and account him an arrival in 1639.

From History of Cambridge...

"JOHN, came to N. Eng. in 1635, then a. 40, the first permanent settler of Camb. Village (now Newton), as early as 1639; was Deacon of the Church, and res. a short distance easterly from Angier's Corner. By his w. Margaret he had John, b. in England 1633, and d. 17 Oct. 1C 75; Theoriosia, in. Noah Wiswall 14 Dec. 1664, and Samuel Newman of Rehoboth, and d. about 1727; Mary, m. Samuel Truesdale; Grace; Caleb, b. and d. 1645: Hannah, b. 7 June 1646, m. Elijah Kenrick; Abigail, b. 14 Aug. 1647, m. Daniel Preston; Margaret, b. 20 June 1649, m. James Trowbridge, Sen., and d. 1727; Edward, b. 14 Jan. 1650-51, slain by the Indians at Medfield 1676; Ann; Abraham, b. 14 Aug. 1655; Deliverance, b. 5 Nov. 1657; Joshua, b. 15 Sept. 1659; Isabel, d. 1661; Sarah, b. 10 June 1662. JOHN the f. d. 1674, a. 79; his w. Margaret d. 1684, a. 80. [44]

Deacon John Jackson was baptised in the Parish of Stepney, London, June 6, 1602. He was the first settler of Cambridge Village, who remained and died in it. He brought a good estate with him, from England. He bought a dwelling house and eighteen acres of land, of Miles Ives of Watertown, in 1639. This estate was situated on the Roxbury road, very near the line which now [1854] divides Newton from Brighton. He took the Freeman's oath, in 1641, was one of the first Deacons of the Church, gave one acre of land for the Church and burial place, upon which the first meeting house was erected, in 1660, and which is now the oldest part of the Centre Cemetery. He was the son of Christopher Jackson, of London, who was buried on the 5th of Dec. 1633. [Whitechapel & Stepney Register. Copied by H. G. Somerby, 1851.] He had, in this country, by two wives, five sons and ten daughters, and at the time of his decease, about fifty grandchildren. He died Jan. 30, 1674-5. Counting from the record of his baptism, in England his age was 73. [Whitechapel & Stepney Register. Copied by H. G. Somerby, 1851.] How old he was when baptized is uncertain. He left an estate, valued at £1,230. His widow Margaret died Aug. 28, 1684, age 60. (Gravestone) She could not, therefore, have been the mother of his son John, who was born in 1639. His old mansion house was pulled down about 1800; it stood on the same spot now [1854] occupied by Edwin Smallwood's new dwelling house. The old pear trees now standing there, are supposed to have been planted by his son Abraham, who also gave one acre of land adjoining that given by his father, for the Church and burial place; which two acres now form the ancient part of the Centre Cemetery. He was a proprietor of the Cambridge lands. In the division of 1662, he had three acres; in 1664, he had twenty acres. In the division of the Billerica lands, in 1652, he had fifty acres. He left eight hundred and sixty three acres of land. His estate was settled by agreement, among the surviving children, in Dec. 1676. [45]

His brother Edward Jackson, Thomas Prentice, Isaac Williams, and Joseph Tayntor, appraised the estate. He had labored long and earnestly, by petitioning the General Court, and otherwise, to have Cambridge Village erected into an independent town, but did not live to see it accomplished.[46]


The inv. of his est. taken 30 Jan. 1674, was filed April 6, 1675. Agreement made 20 Dec. 1676, between the widow Margaret, James Trowbridge, Noah Wiswall, Samuel Truesdall, Daniel Preston and Elijah Kendrick, who had married daughters of the deceased, his son Abram and daus.Deliverance and Sarah, for the partition of the estate."[47]

"JOHN, Cambridge, bapt. at Stepney, near London 6 June 1602, was elder br. of Edward, and I presume came in the Defence 1635, from London, aged 30, call. at the custom ho. "wholesale man in Burchen lane," by w. wh. perhaps d. soon, had beside perhaps two ds. Sarah and Theodosia, John (wh. d. 17 Oct. 1675 in 36th yr. prob. never m.); was freem. perhaps 2 June 1641, but more prob. 10 May 1643, and by w. Margaret had Caleb, b. 12 Dec. 1645, d. in 2 days; Hannah, 7 June 1646, says Hist. of N. 327, prob. error for 7 Jan. 1647; Abigail, 14 Aug. 1648; Margaret, 20 June 1649; Edward, 14 Jan. 1651, k. by the Ind. at Medfield, 21 Feb. 1676; Mary; Abraham, 14 Aug. 1655, bef. ment.; Deliverance, 9 Nov."[48]
