Origin of the Jackson-Whites of the Ramapo mountains

During the Revolutionary War (ca.1780) a man named Jackson brought 3500 women from England and the West Indies to provide "comfort" to the English soldiers stationed in New York. These women and their children were left in America after the war and settled largely in the Ramapo Mountains of New Jersey and New York. Their posterity have been given the nick-name "Jackson-Whites".
