Death? 10 Jan 1834

Since Ms. Bunker on pg 155 made a point of saying that William was 'of Pennsylvania' and did not give his parents, I think it is unlikely that William is a descendant from the lineage of Robert Jackson of Hempstead. My opinion only.

Later: The following quotes copied from Jim Rubin's Rootsweb chart at http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op-GET&db=:704735 "Hannah Seaman married William Jackson, son of William and Katherine Jackson of London Grove, PA. They had no children. Mary Thomas Seaman has the marriage as March 5, 1783 whereas Hinshaw has it as 1788 [no specific date] and recorded in the Westbury [Long Island, NY] Monthly Meeting Minutes."

"William, born 5mo 14, 1746. In 1775 he became a minister in the Society of Friends; in 1778 married Hannah, daughter of Thomas and Hannah Seaman, of Westbury, Long Island, to which place he removed, residing there about two years. He traveled much in the ministry, and visited England and Ireland on religious service in 1802. Hannah died 12 mo 25, 1833, aged about 85 years. William died 1mo 10, 1834, aged nearly 88 years. No children."
