 Descendants of Robert Jackson of Hempstead,
Long Island, New York

This web site is dedicated to the descendants of Robert Jackson. Robert is said to have arrived in Massachusetts with his father, Richard, about 1630, sailing from Yarmouth, England. "Tradition has it that Robert Jackson came from Watertown, Mass., to Wethersfield, Connecticut, from thence to Hartford, Connecticut and from thence to Hempstead, in 1643; which perhaps was the first English settlement in the western part of Long Island." His descendants have spread to all corners of the United States.

This web site is an effort to enable distant cousins to have a place to gather together to look for their connections and add to their family tree.  Much of the information here has been generously submitted by these cousins.  So Welcome!  Come visit awhile under our family tree and reminisce.  We'd love to get better acquainted and hear about your side of the family.  So draw up a chair and explore our site, then drop me an email to tell me where you fit in.  And perhaps you can fill in a lot of holes for all of us too!  I hope you will find a connection here and contact me so your family can be added to our family database.

I'll welcome any and all suggestions for additions and improvements.  Please read 'About this Site' to become better acquainted and then explore the many pages below.  Come back often to see what's new and bring the rest of your family too!
