Hello there,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with my Great Great Grandfather.
JACKSON Richard William, or William Richard.
All I have is he was born in Gainsborough, Lincolnshire around 1812.
He married an Elizabeth Jane Cadby 9 April 1838 in Sydney NSW Australia. He died in 1890 in Sydney NSW Australia. I was hoping to find out who his parents were.
I don't know if this will be enough information to go on.
Thank you for any help

All I can find for that Deanery (parish and several around) is
Bap. Richard Illegitemate son of Rebecca 03 May 1810 at Torksey
Bap. William son of George & Sarah 11 Oct 1812 at Harpswell

Dear Raina,
I don't know if you are aware of me, but I have done heaps of research into the Jacksons over the last 20 years. I am descended from Wm Richard jackson's (WRJ) first son, John James Jackson. I think WRJ was a convict and have followed that option.

Hi Peter
Yes I have seen your site, and lots of your research into the Cadby/Jackson family.
I am descended from William Richard Jackson's son, John Jackson, he married Margaret Dutch. John and Margaret had my Grandfather, John Alfred Jackson and then my Dad Alan John Jackson.
I haven't been doing much lately as I have been looking after my Dad for the past 2 years. Sadly Dad passed away August 23rd this year.
This has given me more motivation to find out more about my Dad's family.
Dad came to New Zealand when he was a young man, and we never knew much about his family, he only has one brother.
I absolutely love doing family research.
I would be grateful if you could share any information with me.
Thank you
Raina

Dear Raina,
Can we go to normal email please? I can't even copy text off this forum so that I can remember what to look up. You can reach me on maddenps (at) westnet.com.au
I will look up what I have in the meantime.
Thanks,
Peter.
