Jackson Wallis was the third son of Robert and Elizabeth born on 29 May 1816 at Old Malton and baptised on 3 June 1816.
Jackson married for the first time to Rachel WALLIS (nee HARRISON) in 1844 at Whitby.
Rachel was born 15 December 1809 at Whitby. Rachel was a widow and had been previously married to Jackson’s 1st cousin John WALLIS (born in 1800 and the son of Thomas, one of the twins who was an older brother of Jackson’s father). John was 9 years older than Rachel. Rachel and Jackson’s cousin John had 7 children, the last of whom was born several months after John died aged 38 in 1838.
Jackson was 7 years younger than Rachel and they married on 19th August 1844at Whitby. They were pretty quick as John was born on 25th December 1844 at Whitby. (For some unfathomable reason the Wallis family Bible gives his date of birth as 25th December 1849.) John was duly baptised on 29thJune 1845 at Fylingdales (not far from Whitby.) Jackson & Rachel then produced Jackson junior who was baptised on 3rdJuly 1846 at Whitby.
Jackson and Rachel then had William on 25th December 1849, but he died on 12th January 1850 and Rachel died as well. She was buried aged 40 on the same day as her infant son aged 17 days.
On the 1851 Census Jackson is listed as a widower, labourer, with son John 6 living with his brother William, a farmer of 100 acres, employing 2 labourers.
Jackson then married Jane BOTTOMLEY in 1853 at Guisborough. Jessie Elizabeth came a couple of months later on 21st August 1853 at Skelton by Guisborough.
Jackson's brother William decided to go to Australia so we can guess that this prompted brother Jackson to do so as well. Why didn’t Jackson take Jackson junior? Had he already gone to sea? Grandfather Robert died in June 1851 and Grandmother Elizabeth in 1855. Someone must have looked after young Jackson. There is a photocopy of an account that Jackson had in 1854 with Dr Richard Stephenson in Skelton. In July he had 3 separate listings which came to four shillings and sixpence . In August he had 8 items listed on 7 dates which came to thirteen shillings and sixpence (one dollar thirty-five cents). On 3 occasions he had “Visus”. Whatever he had, he recovered and the account is marked paid.
He was a yeoman farmer and probably very skilled as the family had been yeoman farmers for generations. The Wallis family were unassisted migrants which meant that they paid their own fare which was quite considerable.
