I am looking for information on Mary Fitzrandolph [Thorne-Jackson-Fitzrandolph]. She was the daughter of Edward Fitz Randolph and Catherine Hartshorne (Edward was the son of Nathaniel FR and grandson of Edward FR & Elizabeth Blossom).
I have her birthdate as 24 May 1710. Her husbands were William Thorne, James Jackson, Jacob Fitz Randolph. I am specifically interested in her marriage to James Jackson. There is record in the Jackson family research of James marrying a MARY Thorne, with whom he had children beginning at least as early as Nov 1740. (This was his second wife – first being SARAH Thorne, sister of WILLIAM Thorne, Mary Fitzrandolph’s first husband). They then have James Jackson marrying a MARY Fitzrandolph on 26 May 1749 (James Jackson died in 1750). There are places I have seen James as having 2 wives, and then also as having 3. I believe it is possible that the second wife, MARY Thorne is actually the same person as MARY Fitzrandolph, as she was the widow of William Thorne and therefore would have been MARY Thorne at
the time they were married. Therefore, I think there may have been only one MARY, mother to all of James’ children.
Either way, this MARYFITZ RANDOLPH may have been in custody of James’ minor children at the time of his death in 1750. I am searching for his daughter (and possibly hers as well), MARGARET Jackson, born Dec. 1745. I have documentation from Friends records of the births for JAMES and MARY JACSON (Sarah, John, Benjamin, Charles, Margaret).
So my questions are: Do you have documentation/information of MARY FITZRANDOLPH-THORNE’s marriage to James Jackson? Obviously I am looking for the actual date to piece together if she is in fact the mother of his children. Also – any information as to where/what happened to her after his death in 1750? I know she eventually married Jacob Fitzrandolph. I have read that she was disowned by her family and excommunicated (if that is the right term) from the Quakers because of this marriage as they were first cousins. Do you have any information on MARGARET Jackson (maybe even listed as MARGARET Thorne??). I am trying to see if this is the same Margaret Jackson as married Moses Tichenor around 1763, and if so, if she was also of the Fitzrandolph line.
Thank you for any information you can provide.
