There may be a clever way within iocage itself, but if you do

     % zfs get -o name,value -r origin tank/iocage

(where tank/iocage is the root dataset that iocage is using), then 
you'll see the 'origin' of each filesystem used by iocage

There, you might see

     tank/iocage/jsils/JAIL1/root  
tank/iocage/templates/TEMPLATE1/root@JAIL1
     tank/iocage/templates/TEMPLATE1/root    
tank/iocage/releases/13.1-RELEASE/root@TEMPLATE1

...showing that JAIL1's /root is a clone of TEMPLATE1 at the snapshot 
@JAIL, and that that that template is a clone of the release at the 
snapshot @TEMPLATE1.

So that, slightly indirectly, indicates the sequence of iocage jail 
creation.

Best wishes,

Norman
