The name of John Jago, Bantry appears on the online index of the Bantry Estate records as acquiring a lease for a store and yard on the Quay in 1830. Some of the Chief Secretary Papers for Dublin Castle held in the National Archives have now been put on line and Mr. Jago also features there.
At one stage he had a shop in Cork in the Barrack Stret/Bandon Road area.
In 1821 he was writing proposing that education be provided free of any particular sect. He was also petitioning for the development of the fishing industry and for his own appointment as a Fishery Inspector in Kerry. Mr Jago was presumably involved in the fishing industry.
His son John qualified as a barrister and entered a lease with the Bantry Estate for the store and yard in 1844. His date of birth is 1804 and his mother is Margaret O’Connor. He may have gone to Australia later.
In the Bantry Estate records Margaret Jagoe, nee Young a widow in involved in a property transaction in 1791 near the present Maritime Hotel a life named is her son John aged 20, giving him a date of birth of 1791, the Young family fishing merchant also feature in the deed. She is probably his mother.
