LANDMARKS: Jackson’s Creek NAMES: HUGGINS, Robert; JACKSON, William; JENKINS, Joseph; JACKSON, Walter; Jackson’s Creek. Mentioned March 6, 1710-11, in connection with a road from Lamprey river to the Salmon Falls river, which, in its course, ran near Robert Huggins’ house, at the south; thence to William Jackson’s pasture and to the head of Jackson’s creek, straight as ye old road went, then 'Joseph Jenkins to open at ye left,' etc. Evidently the same as Johnson’s creek, near which Walter Jackson had a grant of land the 19th, 1 mo., 1665.

Walter Jackson came in the John and Sara and was received as an habitant at Oyster River in 1658. He had wife, Jane, in 1663, and, Ann, in 1667. For family see Genealogical Notes. James Jackson also came in the John and Sara. He was taxed at Oyster River in 1663. June 27, 1661, James Jackson was freed from training "by reason he hath lost one of his fingers." Did he lose it at the battle of Worcester or in Valentine Hill’s sawmill? He married a daughter of John Smith of Cape Nedick, York, where he had a grant of twenty-eight acres in 1667, next to land of his father-in-law. He was probably killed by Indians, with his wife and two children, in 1675. He left a daughter, Elizabeth, who in 1685 acquits her uncle, John Smith, Jr., of York, from any incumbrance, dues, or demands concerning her father’s estate or concerning herself.
