OK, so here is how I solved my problem. I re-processed all the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes after full boil. All the jars sealed this time. I did wipe all the jars down before putting the lids on. This recipe is a family one, passed down through at least 3 generations. And, yes, I didn't use the water method the 1st time, but will in the future. My mom never processed this in water, so I was doing it her way. all other fruits and veggies were given the bath treatment, but never her jams and jellies. Live and learn. thanks for all the great input.
