Disambiguation

Not the same as Hannah Jackson, birth date 14 Aug 1649 at Cambridge, daughter of Deacon John Jackson & Margaret Jackson



The parentage of Hannah Jackson has not yet been proved; but it is probable that she was the daughter of John Jackson who was a neighbor of William* Averell and his father. For we find that Katheryne Jackson who was appointed admrx of the estate of her late husband, John Jackson, 26:7:1648 [Ipswich Ct. Rs. and Files], was to pay to her son John Jackson £14, at the age of twenty-one, and to the five daughters £6 apiece at the age of twenty years, or at marriage. The names and ages of these daughters have not been learned, but the close association of the two families make it probable that our Hannah was one of them. That she was a woman of good mental powers and nobility of spirit, and a strong influence for good in her family is proved by the noted mutual agreement between herself and her children, which held the family closely together for more than thirty-five years after their father's death [See p. 89],

Notes

In 1694 Sgt John Jackson unites with his mother and brother Nathaniel as exrs. of his father's estate in the sale of some land in Ipswich (see pp. 88 and 89). Tops field Historical Collections [Vol. 3] records that "John Auerill is appointed fence viewer" ; and 1691-2 "John Awerele is appointed Serveyer". He is also mentioned later in the records.

He appears in the Town Records Mar. 2, 1696-7 as John Averell Sargt, and probably held this office in the train band. He was not baptized until thirty-one years of age, when, on May 16, 1697, Rev. Joseph Capen baptized him and his brothers and sisters [see p. 96] .

It is probable that he lived with his mother, Mrs. Hannah (Jackson) Averell, in the old homestead all his life, as she was sole exr. of her husband's estate, and as he remained unmarried so far as we know until 44 years of age.
