Was unmarried as of June 1832 when she was mentioned as an heir of her uncle Samuel Jackson's estate. See his Notes.

Dr. Anthony Troha found a death notice for Cornelia A. Jackson-5679 in a Southold, Suffolk County, Long Island, New York newspaper: The Long Island Traveler, Thursday, December 31, 1874 (Volume IV, Number 16), Page 2, Column 4:

“DIED. In Dix Hills [Dix Hills is a hamlet in the town of Huntington, Suffolk County, New York] Dec. 17, Miss Cornelia A. Jackson, æ 85 yrs.”

This gives us the place and date of her death, as well as her age. Hence, she was born c. 1789 and evidently was a spinster.
