But Saxon surnames survived and the family name was first referenced in the 13th century when they held estates in that county.

Many of these families became important contributors to the young colonies in which they settled. Early immigration and passenger lists have documented some of the first Jucksons to arrive on North American shores: the name represented in many forms and recorded from the mid 17th century in the great migration from Europe.
