General Notes: Husband - William Jessop
He probably came from Manchester (although it is also stated that he came from Sheffield), England, to Maryland while the latter was still a colony. He was a collier and so described himself, and became manager of the iron works of the Baltimore Company. This company owned extensive tracts of land in Baltimore County. In 1753 and by deed of June 11, 1756, he acquired title to two parcels of land on which he erected a dwelling. He was described by his grandson as being tall and athletic, and of an impetuous nature.
His widow, with their six children survived him.
General Notes: Wife - Margaret Walker
