(Village now exists as part of Yates, Orleans Co, NY. ) Book says Jackman met the woman he would marry on the "Queen" -Captain McLean-which left Liverpool for New York circa July 1847. The editor/publisher of his book, Rev Israel Chamberlayne, was living in Lyndonville, Orleans Co, at that time.

1853- Auburn, NY-"Northern Christian Advocate"--Feb 1853--The Australian Captive, or Adventures by William Jackman. Edited by Rev. Israel Chamberlayne, Derby and Miller, 1853. Jackman is an Englishman but not sufficiently educated to throw his narrative into shape for the press. An able editor has therefore been employed to give form and polish to the story. Evey page of the work shows the editor's hand and yet the narrative is Jackman's. For varied, wild, and wonderful scenes, the book is almost unrivaled. We have read nothing in a long time so marvelous as the author's adventures among the cannibals of Australia. The work is a decided hit in the book-making line and cannot fail to have a large run . The typography is elegant and there are several striking embellishments.

1853 -April 30-son Samuel A Jackman born in Madison.

ca. 1853

From Bradley Dean-re: Thoreau's notes on the Jackman book-June 2004

"The contextual evidence in the notebooks indicates pretty clearly that Thoreau read the Jackman book in September 1853. Probably the book had been published not much prior to that date. I have not been able to determine where he borrowed the book. It was not in his own collection, but Thoreau borrowed widely from the libraries of his friends (Emerson, Alcott, Sanborn, and others less well known). We know the holdings of Emerson’s and Alcott’s libraries pretty well, and Jackman is not listed in either—but one of Alcott’s daughters may have kept the Jackman for herself after his death, for instance. It’ll likely remain a mystery where Thoreau got the copy he read".

Croix country was divided in March of 1853, part of the settlement became

part of Pierce county, and part of it remained in St. Croix county. The

part of the settlement which went into Pierce county was then called the

Township of Greenwood and the part of the settlement that was in St. Croix

county was then called the townships of Kinnickinnic (now called Troy) and

Easton, published in 1909, p. 854-855:

"William Jackman was born in Devonshire England, December 19, 1818 (sic), his

parents being William and Mary Jackman. The subject of this sketch went to

sea when nine years old and followed the occupation of a sailor for

twenty-one years, when he deserted the mast to settle in Orleans county,

New York, where he lived three years before moving to Dane county,

Wisconsin. He married in 1846 Jennett Scott, a daughter of William Scott

and Jennett (Nelson) Scott, and they were the parents of twelve children,

all of whom are living at the present time in St. Croix county, with the

exception of William, who resides in Foreman, N. Dak., and is the sheriff

of Sargent county, North Dakota. The other children: Mrs. Emma Jane

Stauffer, James Henry, Thomas, Frederick, Charles David, Mrs. Margaret

Baird, Mrs. Isabelle Cynthia Ryan and John Edward Jackman. Mr. Jackman was

a member of the High Episcopal church. He acted with the Republican party

in political affairs and was by that party selected at different times to

occupy most every office in Pleasant Valley township. William Jackman died

April 16, 1888 (sic), and his wife died April 14, 1896."

From Craig Muller-Australia

July 2002

I haven't uncovered any further info on William JAckman until now, but this is worth the wait. I have recently had the chance to get to the Kalgoorlie-Esperance area for the first time since we began communicating. I was aware of a man named John Graham, a senior Ngadju man with an extensive knowledge of the Esperance area, and I was able to meet him last week. Immediately I asked him if he was aware of the Jackman story, he said that his father had told him the story, and his father in turn had heard it from his great-grandmother (Mr Graham's great-great-grandmother), who was alive in the 1830s and was an eye-witness. Mr Graham could remember few details of what his father told him, other than that Jackman's blond hair and beard had made quite an impression at the time. He also agreed with my thoughts that Jackman was living with Ngadju peoples in the Israelite Bay to Norseman region and engaged in conflict with the Nyungar peoples - their western neighbours.

Mr Graham had read an extract from the book and was able to tell me he was certain that the mountain Jackman climbed when he was making his way back to the coast prior to being rescured was Mount Ragged, an important site about 150 kilometres east of Esperance. Thanks to your disc I was able to send Mr Graham a copy of the book - he was very interested. So there is an oral tradition of Jackman's time with the Ngadju peoples.

I hope this is helpful

Subject: RE: William Jackman

Dear Mrs Freeman,

Thanks for the email about William Jackman. Yes, I am the historian for the

Goldfields Land and Sea Council. The Council is the body representing the

Aboriginal peoples of the central southern part of the state of Western

Australia. A major part of that representation is that we are handling a

number of Native Title claims. These are legal claims registered in the

Federal court by various Aboriginal groups for the areas of land with which

that group has a traditional connection. The Ngadju peoples have already

lodged a claim for an area to the north and east of Esperance. These

claimants are the descendents of the people with who I believe William

Jackman lived.

Much of Australia is currently subject to Native Title claims, but if a

claim is successful, title is granted only over parts of the claimed area.

Any freehold land, and most land held under mining and pastoral leases, is

not subject to Native Title. The Ngadju peoples, for example, claim an area

they say is their traditional land - a large, roughly rectangular area

running eastward from Norseman. If the Federal Court accepts that the

claimants have maintained a traditional connection to this land, they will

be granted Native Title over it. In practice, this means that they are

given title to the vacant Crown land, some forests and beaches, national

parks and public reserves, and some types of pastoral leases within that

area.

My involvement in the claim is to write the history of the Ngadju peoples

from the time of the first contact with Europeans until now, on behalf of

the claimants. Jackman's account is now likely to form an important part of

that history. As I have noted, the major requirement to prove Native Title

is to show that the claimants have maintained a traditional connection. In

part, this means it is important to know what practices and customs existed

at the time Europeans arrived, which is why Jackman's descriptions could

prove useful. In fact, there is very little else in the way of written

studies of the Ngadju peoples until the 1960s.

What makes it potentially more valuable is that it is virtually unique. I

don't know of any other castaway story being published about Western

Australia. Beyond its use in the Ngadju claim, I think the book is of

enormous interest to both indigenous and non-indigenous people in the

Esperance-Norseman region as a vibrant piece of local history.

Until John Graham told me the story had been handed down in his family I

had no independent confirmation of the Western Australian part of Jackman's

story. Whether deliberately or otherwise, Jackman had obfuscated the

details of his time in Western Australia, so that none of the details he

gave match other information in the historic records. Without further

confirmation, his account would likely not be acceptable to the court. I

agree with you that the story is believable, but it is difficult to

confirm, and there are details, such as the names of ships Jackman gives,

that don't match other evidence.

You may be amused to know that when I first discovered the book, and prior

to finding Susan's message on the net, I thought it was possible that the

whole thing was made up by Chamberlayne or someone else, and that Jackman

may not have existed. Finding that he had living descendents, and that they

had documentation, took care of that idea.

I would be happy to keep you informed on the Ngadju case, but it will move

very slowly. My report for the court is due in April next year. Court

hearing will begin many months after that, and a decision is probably

several years away. Even that decision may well be appealed - this is a

long process.

Yours,

Craig Muller

***************

March 22, 2007

There has been little progress on the Ngadju Native Title claim. We lodged our report in the Federal Court early in 2004 and the Court advised that it would prefer the claim was mediated. The state government, however, has refused to negotiate, stating that the Ngadju people have no Native Title. We are attempting to open negotiations on Ngadju land rights perhaps at some other level but without any real progress to date. The case may yet end up in court.

I made further attempts to get more details of William Jackman’s time in Western Australia – trying to verify the presence of the ships he named through some research in the Perth newspaper of the late 1830s and by contacting a couple of maritime historians – but nothing new came up. The ships are not mentioned anywhere else as far as I can see. I noted in my report the evidence from Jackman’s book, but without being able to show just where he was it won’t be accepted as part of the proof of the presence of Ngadju, or other Indigenous, people. We do, however, have other historical evidence – explorers etc. Despite which, I still find Jackman’s story a compelling one, and I still accost anyone I come across who has specialised historical knowledge of the southern Western Australian coast to ask if they can add anything!

I hope to hear from you soon – actually I think my email is the same as it was when we first got in touch.

Regards, Dr Craig Muller

Notes for JENNETT NELSON SCOTT*:

NOTE: The wife of Wm Jackman--Unable to confirm birth/baptism date on Jennett in Scotland. I have placed her in the William Scott family--she was not among the members in 1841 census...she perhaps traveled in 1847 to the US with the widow [maybe her mother] Janet Scott who lived with her sons in NY. ( See Orleans Co, NY census , 1850, 1855, 1860 which may indicate her mother, brothers and other family settled in Orleans Co.)

From Ian McClumpha:

" I found a Jean Scott (single) in the 1841 census at Rosebank, Inch parish (886/3/1) Jean and Jannet were interchangeable and the age bracket fits (ages were rounded down for that census). No proof but at least there was a single Janet in the vicinity."

"Jean" was listed as age 15. which means that she was between 15 and 19.

Born Nov 1823 she would actually have been 17 on Census night."

(886 is the parish number for Inch (all 901 Scottish parishes have a number) Rosebank is in Enumeration book 3, page 1. Therefore 886/3/1 is the reference number for that particular entry).

*******************

Speculation: That Jennett came with her mother? and family/relatives in 1847 aboard the "Queen" , on which she met William Jackman, as told in the introduction of his book. They lived in Yates, Lyndonville, NY for several years. Their first son was born in Orleans Co., NY. Then moved to Dane Co, Wisconsin, and later to St. Croix Co., Wisconsin. MSS written by Wm Jackman after coming to US confirms this later info.

FROM OBIT

"The Sargent County News", Oct 24, 1935.

"William T Jackman was born in Albany NY, Nov 18, 1848. and died in the Good Samaritan Hospital in Aberdeen, SD at 10:30 AM Oct 18, 1935.

"When he was about one year old, the family moved to WI where he grew to manhood and was married but suffered the loss of his wife after a few years. Three children were born to this union: Frankie, who died several years ago, Jennie Cooper of Seattle, WA and George Jackman of Spokane WA.

"Mr Jackman came to Minnesota and lived near Hancock and on July 23, 1880 he was married to Mary Ann Highland at Hancock, MN. Six children were born to this union. Dollie Van Ornum of Hecla, SD; Henry Jackman, Minneapolis, MN; Alice Rowland, Aberdeen, SD; I.R.Jackman, Lake City , MI; Harry Jackman of Forman, ND; Charles Jackman of Forman, ND.

"Mr. Jackman and his family came to Dakota Territory in 1882, and settled in what is now Marshall County, S D, which was then part of Day County. He helped to organize Marshall County. He moved to Sargent County, ND in 1890.

"He was elected sheriff of Sargent County in 1904, reelected, 1906; Elected 1910 ; reelected 1914;

served as deputy sheriff under Ole Fladby from Jan, 1915-Jan 1919.

" He farmed in Marboe township in this County from the time he came here in 1890 until he took the office of Sheriff January 1, 1905. and returned to the farm in 1909 after completing his first two terms as Sheriff. When he was elected Sheriff in 1910 he came to Forman and since that time has lived in Forman or in the vicinity. He sold his farm in Marboe township after he moved to Forman and lived in this town during his two terms an during the time he was deputy. Since he retired from the Sheriff's office he has been living with his son, Charles Jackman on a farm in Forman township.

He leaves surviving him besides his widow and the eight children, thirty -six grandchildren and eight great grandchildren.

"Another pioneer has gone leaving a void that will never be filled Those hardy souls that settle and built up this country, one by one are dropping away.

Of all the good qualities of W.T. Jackman and there were many, probably the most outstanding were integrity, devotion to duty, good nature, warm friendship and sincerity of purpose. He was always active in the public life and always devoted his time and energy for the public good. After he had served the two consecutive terms in the offic of the Sheriff, as soon as he was eligible the people reelected him to that position for the two more terms that he could serve. This shows very conclusively in what regard he was held by the people of the county and that they recognized his ability, his honesty and his fitness fo the position.

"Mr. Jackman had no enemies. Everyone who knew him respected and admired him. He was a true and loyal friend and a loving husband and father.

Mr. and Mrs Jackman celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary July 2, 1930.

The funeral was held Tuesday with services at the Forman Congregational Church. Rev. Ebertz officiating. Burial was in the Forman Cemetery south of town.

SAMUEL SCOTT son, unmarried, 10, born Glasserton

(and a 21 year old plowman, named Antony Heron)

That record accounts for 1 daughter and 3 sons. But there were 4 sons, definitely. The "missing person" here is son WILLIAM, who came to the U.S.A. at some unspecified date, but at the age of 17 years, according to his granddaughter RUTH BELTER (N. Aurora, Illinois). He settled in Wisconsin. The eldest of his 13 children, son ROBERT married MAGGIE SCOTT, a daugther of SAMUEL SCOTT, Beltrami - i.e. a marriage of first cousins. Another of his sons, BILL, spent a lot of time around Beltrami where, I was told, he was known as Badger Billy to distinguish him from SAMUEL SCOTT's son Billy. I would guess that the missing 4th son was already in the U.S.A. when that 1861 census was taken in Scotland.
