An interesting record of his home in Jericho is told at the following URL. It is called the Townsend-Jackson-Malcolm House. This hisoric home has now been completely restored. The restoration was made possible through a partnership involving the Nassau Conservancy, the County Department of Parks, Recreation and Museums, and a team of 16 Long Island interior and garden designers who volunteered their time and services. http://www.antonnews.com/oysterbayenterprisepilot/2005/12/09/news/malcolm.html

A quote from the above site: "Very little is known of John Jackson except that he was a Quaker and a fourth generation decendant of Robert Jackson, one of the original settlers of Hempstead. He was married twice, first to Charity Tredwell in 1756, and following her death to Margaret Wright Townsend. By his first marriage he had four children and by his second five more, the third being his son Obadiah.

"Like his father, Obadiah was a farmer and like his father, he was married twice, first to Elizabeth Wright, who died shortly afterward. Then in 1804, he married Rachel Underhill. Obadiah's son William's daughter Phoebe Jackson married James Malcolm who served as Town Assessor and was a director of the Oyster Bay bank. Their sons William and James A. Malcolm deeded the land to James A. Malcolm Jr. It was acquired by the county on April 2, 1974."
