(Research):~*~Jackson~*~
The bleak border moors and craggy hills of the Scottish - E Englishborder set the scene of the origin of this notable s surname Jackson. Itis one of the oldest surnames with a his Tory that is closely woven intothe rich and beautiful tape Astry of the border chronicles. Professionalresearchers exa mined some of the most ancient manuscripts such as the:
Exchequer Rolls of Scotland
Domesday Book
Inquistio
Ragman Rolls
Baptismals
Parish Records, and Cartularies
Tax Records
The researchers found the first record of the name Jackso n inNorthumberland where they were seated from early times . Their firstrecords appeared on the Census Rolls taken b y the ancient Kings ofBritian to determine the rate of tax ation of their subjects. The earlyand middle development o f the name found many different spellings in theArchives . The name Jackson, occurred in many references, and from t imeto time, the surname was spelled, Jaccson, Jacson, Jack ston, and thesechanges in spelling frequently occurred wit hin the same family name.Scribes and church officials spel t the name as it sounded, and thesespellings were not eve n consistent during the lifetime of the sameperson. The fa mily name Jackson is believed to be descended originallyfr om the Boernicians. This ancient founding race of the nort h were amixture of Scottish Picts and Angles, a race datin g from about the year400 AD. Their territories ranged fro m Edinburgh in the north, southwardto the north riding o f Yorkshire in England. By 1000 AD This race hadformed int o discernible clans and families, perhaps some of the firs tevidence of the family structure in Britian. From this ar ea we get someof the most impressive names in history, sur names with strange nicknamessuch as the Angry Kerrs, the S turdy Armstronges, the Gallant Grahams,the Saucy Scotts, t he Bells, the Nixons, the Famous Dicksons, the BoldRutherf ords, the Pudding Somervilles. Amongst this elite circle o fclans and families the earliest record of the surname Jac kson was foundin Northumberland where they were recorded a s a family of greatantiquity seated with Manor and Estate s in the shire. Later theybranched south to Durham, Yorksh ires, and Lancashire, and north intoScotland where they he ld the Manor of Balbrogy, and at Tubermore andFort Willia m in the north. A colonel John Jackson was chief advisor t oKing Charles I of England in his struggle against Cromwel l. On the Kingsdefeat he changed his politics and settle d in Ulster, Ireland. Theborder area of Scotland and Engla nd proceeded from Carlisle in the westto Berwick in the ea st. The clans or families to the north of the borderbecam e Scottish after about 1000 AD and to the south they becam eEnglish. Nevertheless, despite the border, many would sti ll be unitedclans, powers unto themselves, owing little al legiance to eitherScotland or England, having territorie s and interests on both sides ofborder. Clan warfare becam e so intense that in 1246 AD, 6 chiefs fromthe Scottish si de and 6 chiefs from the English side met at Carlisle andp roduced a set of laws for all the border territory. These w ere unlikeany laws prevailing in England or Scotland, or , for that matter anywhereelse in the known world. For exa mple, it was a far greater offence torefuse to help a neig hbour recover his property, wife, sheep, cattle, orhorse t han it was to steal them in the first place. For refusal o fassistance a person could be hanged on the instant, witho ut a trial.While clans were on this "hot trot", (from whic h we get the modern term"hot to trot") they were protecte d from almost all eventualities.
Amongst the first pioneers who could be considered kinsme n of the familyname Jackson, of that clan or family, was J ohn, Margaret, Robert, andHenry Jackson who settled in th e Boston area in 1635. This militaryfamily continued its t radition in the War of Independence when ColonelMichael Ja ckson commanded a Massachuset Line Regiment.
The family name Jackson provided many prominent contemporar ies,
Sir Lawrence Jackson, an Australian Judge
Frederick Jackson, an American educator
Glenda Jackson, a British actress
Maynard Jackson, an American lawyer of some note
Stuart Jackson, an American engineer
Andrew "Old Hickory" Jackson, an American general and presi dent
Thomas Jonathon "Stonewall" Jackson, an American Confederat e genera
General Sir William Jackson to name a few.
The most ancient grant of a coat of arms was researched as ; Blue with ablack chevron on which there are three silve r five leaved flowersbetween three gold eagle heads. The c rest is a hawks head. The ancientfamily motto for this dis tinguished name was; "by the shield of divinelove".
