• Notes

  Possibly appears in the Land Tax register of 1798 for South Tawton (for 16s, 4d); there being no other obvious William JACKMANs at this time in South Tawton. Is this connected with his assumed death? There is a burial of a Wm JACKMAN in 1807, but assumed to be less likely than the 1798 burial
