Denise's Ancestors

The Jackson's

of Snickersville, Bluemont, Loudoun county VA

I am currently beginning to piece together the relationship of my Roberts family - to two sets of Jackson's in the Snickersville area.

As it stands - I do know that my great great grandparents  Lewis and Nellie (or Amelia) Weaver had a daughter Maria Weaver, sister to my great grandmother Amelia Weaver.

Maria was born in 1848 in Loudoun, and her birth is recorded in our family bible. 

Maria Weaver married Richard Jackson (see Jackson slave narrative) on Dec. 2, 1869 in Loudoun. Richard Jackson's sister Rose married Christopher Scipio, which is how we became cousin's to the Scipio's on one side of the family.

Maria and Richard Jackson had several children.

Recorded in the family bible are these births:

William H. Jackson either 1880 or 1886

Mary M. Jackson, b. 1882

Delia E. Jackson b. Jan 7th 1886

John L Jackson b.  May 3rd 1887

Ida Anneliza Jackson b. Oct 3rd, 1889

There are two deaths recorded.

Maria Jackson:

Died Dec 31, 1919

 and Ida Anneliza Jackson Venable Gibson

Died Dec. 1925

All of these JACKSON'S were a mystery to me.

I know they were close enough kin to be recorded in the family bible.

I had no idea what happened to any of them - or when they left Loudoun county.  I found no record of their births in Loudoun.  Just the marriage. 

It was clear from Ida Anneliza's death notation that she married twice - once to a VENABLE and last to a GIBSON.  

Then one day - scouring the census for the umpteenth time I found the following record:

JACKSON, MARIA (1910 U.S. Census)
New Jersey , ESSEX, 4-WD MONTCLAIR, Age 60, Female, Race: Black, Born: VA
Series: T624 Roll: 883 Page: 280

My grandfather - her nephew, was in Montclair in 1910 - as was my grandmother!

Listed in this household are a widowed Maria, age 60 (2 years off)
son Louis (no Louis or Lewis is listed as born in family bible but Maria's father was named Lewis and she had a son named John Lewis 
daughter Ida Venable, married 1 child born - age 20 born OHIO.
G-Son Charles Venable 5 - born NJ.

Living in the house is a 48 year old widowed "boarder" named Robert GIBSON, from Florida.

I now have to look for a marriage record for Ida to this Gibson widower.

I also need to see if I can find a record of Ida's birth in Ohio - but have no idea where to start looking - I don't see Richard or Maria in census records for Ohio.

Since I have a death date for Maria - I now know where to look for a record.
