Jones, Anna Jones and Smith Jones buried in Talley Cemetery The three are Smith Jones, his wife Anna Butler Jones and their son, James Hamilton Jones. See Below my information on them... Descendants of Smith Jones Generation No. 1 1.  SMITH3 JONES  (BENJAMIN2, THOMAS1) was born 11 Jan 1803 in Morgan County GA, and died 18 Oct 1861 in Izard  County AR (Talley Cemetery).  He married ANNA BUTLER Oct 1822 in Gwinnett County GA, daughter of CURRY BUTLER and MARY CRICKETT.  She was born 04 Oct 1802 in Lincoln County GA, and died 07 Sep 1875 in Marshall County OK (bur. Talley Cemetery, Izard Co. OK). Notes for SMITH JONES: #     Smith Jones was born in 1803 in a section of Jackson County that in 1818 became Gwinnett County. We do not know how he came to be named "Smith" but at that time it was a common practice in the South to use a surname as the given name, especially for a son.     Before Smith Jones was twelve years old he and his brothers became orphans. His father died before May 1812 and his mother died before March 11, 1811. In July 1817, Smith's maternal grandfather, Nathan Fowler, died and in his will left to the five orphan Jones children a tract of land, including his plantation house, and his farm equipment. Since no record of the settlement of Nathan Fowler's estate has been found, we do not know what happened to this land.     After the death of their parents, their sister, Matilda, newly married to Wiley Bridges, a citizen of Lawrenceville, was able to give them a home. On January 6, 1818, Smith and Nathan, having reached the age where they could decide for themselves, chose their brother-in-law as their guardian. The Jackson County court approved, noting that the court had earlier appointed Wiley Bridges as guardian of their brother Thomas. .James is not mentioned and it is not known what happened to him. He may have been of age by this time.     No marriage record for Smith and Anna Butler has been found but it is likely that they married in Gwinnett County since, according to the 1820 census for Wiley Bridges household, Smith was probably still there. Two of the three Gwinnett County marriage books covering this period were lost in a fire and they are not listed in the third book or in Putnam County records.     In 1820, Gwinnett County had 693 households and a total population of 4,589 people. It was not a major slave owning area, only 23% of the heads of households owned slaves. But it was growing by leaps and bounds. By 1830 the number of households had nearly tripled, to 1,848, and the total population was 13,220. However, by 1840 the lure of cheap land to the West and the depletion of the local soil, had taken their toll. There were only 10,813 people left in the County, a decrease of  22%. Soon this pull to the West would influence Smith Jones and his family.     In the 1830 census, Smith is shown heading a household of 3 boys less than 5, one youth 15-20 (a brother?), one female and one male, Smith and Anna, 20-30 and one female 40-50, probably Anna's mother, Mary Crickett Butler. His household in the 1840 census consisted of two boys and two girls under five, two boys aged 5-10, one youth aged 15-20, one female ,Anna , aged 20-30, one female aged 60-70.     Smith Jones was active in community affairs, being appointed a justice of the peace for the Harbin District (#478) in 1841 and serving on petit juries at least two times. And, on occasion, he was appointed by local authorities to settle disputes.     Their farm was in the Harbin District near the present day town of Dacula. It was bounded roughly by Ebenezer Church Road, Whitley Road and the Appalachee River. The Ebenezer Church was founded in 1847 and it is likely that Smith and his family attended the church before they left the next year for Sugar Valley in the Cherokee Purchase.     In 1838 the United States forced 15,000 Cherokee Indians in Northwest Georgia to leave Georgia and nearby areas and resettle in Oklahoma.Their forced removal resulted in the infamous Trail of Tears. But tragedy for the Cherokees was opportunity for others. It opened a large area for settlement by whites. Smith and Anna Jones, taking advantage of the situation, moved to Sugar Valley in Murray County in the Fall of 1848. He is listed in the 1850 census for the County as aged 47. Family history relates that he and his wife were members of the "Old Primitive Baptist Church". At the time of the census, he and his wife, the former Anna Crickett Butler, had eight children - six boys and two girls -ranging in age from 25 to 5. In the Fall of 1859 Smith Jones and most of  his family moved from Murray County to Izard County, Arkansas by ox wagon. By then, son Thomas Marion had married and he remained behind with his wife who was expecting a child. Another married son, Willis Cornelius, went with the rest of the family to Izard County. We are not sure if the brothers Nathan Henry, Rufus Philo and Benjamin Curry came long. Perhaps they had already struck out to seek their fortunes on their own.     On November 25, 1859 in the Batesville land office, Smith Jones paid $40 for 160 acres (25 cents per acre) in the North Fork Township (in Section 5, Township 17N, Range 11W) near the White River in Izard County, Arkansas. This land is now in Baxter County. The log house they built in a small valley near Moccasin Creek still stands, reached by a narrow, dirt track running off State Highway 5. It was bought in the late 1970s by George Kelley who replaced the roof, some sill logs and did other restoration work. In 1992, it was bought by Jay Reynolds who moved into the cabin and finished the restoration work, electrified the house, added a bathroom and septic tank, built a stone woodshed, a small barn and put a solar pump in the spring. As of late 1999, the Reynolds were constructing a large Victorian house on the hill above the cabin and were thinking of renting the cabin to tourists.     In the 1860 census of Izard County the family consisted of:     Smith Jones, age 57 - farmer     Annie, age 57 - domestic (housekeeper)     Willis C., age 26 - farmer     Ellen F., age 22 - domestic     Oliver S., age 18, Serving (laborer)     James H. M., age 15 - Serving     Benjamin Curry, Rufus P., Nathan H., Elizabeth M. and Mary E. Jones were no longer members of the household. The " Ellen F." listed in thehousehold was the wife of son Willis Cornelius.     Both Smith and Anna Jones are buried near the mouth of Moccasin Creek in the Talley Cemetery west of Pineville, Arkansas in Izard County. The cemetery is in bottom land that has grown up into a cane break and the gravestones are hidden away in the cane. A son, James Hamilton Jones, and a daughter, Elizabeth Matilda Talley and her husband, are also buried in the cemetery. Notes for ANNA BUTLER: Anna Butler was named for her maternal grandmother, Anna Hardy. According to family legend, sometime after her husband died in Izard County, Arkansas, Anna Butler Jones moved to Linn, Marshall County, Oklahoma to live with her daughter, Mary E. Overton. She died there but is buried with her husband in the Talley family cemetery in Izard County, Arkansas.

TALLEY 24 Apr 1856 in Gwinnett County Georgia, son of WILLIAM TALLEY and SARAH GOSS.  He was born 09 Apr 1833 in GA, and died 13 Sep 1882 in Izard  County AR (Talley Cemetery). Notes for ISHAM H. TALLEY: It appears that Smith Jones and Isham Talley journeyed from Murray County, Georgia to Izard County, Arkansas in the same wagon train. They filed for land at the Federal land office in Batesville on the same day. Isham Talley was a soldier in the 1st Arkansas Infantry Regiment (Union) during the Civil War, serving in the same regiment as his brother-in-law, Willis Cornelius Jones. At least one of his brothers fought on the Confederate side. Isham filed for a Civil War pension in 1896 when he was 63 years old (Appli. #532937, Cert. #572719, filed from Arkansas). After the War, he became a prominent citizen of Izard County serving for a time as Clerk of the Circuit Court (1868-1872) and as postmaster at Mount Olive. His home was still standing in 1999, although greatly changed in appearance. Isham and his wife Elizabeth Matilda had eight children. Six lived until adulthood. A portion of the land he purchased in Izard County, Arkansas was set aside as a family cemetery, now overgrown in cane, and he and his wife are buried there along with several of their children.

Family Finder uses autosomal DNA (inherited from both the mother and father, four grandparents, eight great-grandparents, etc.) to provide you a breakdown of your ethnic percentages and connect you with relatives descended from any of your ancestral lines within approximately the last 5 generations. I was always told that my HOUSE line had Cherokee from both HOUSE and my g grandmother KESNER. Then everyone said my grandmother's mother Cindy SANDERS was 1/2 or more Cherokee. I had these DNA tests done and I have 0% Indian blood, 90% Western European, and 10% Mid Eastern. Anyone that is serious about finding out about their ethnic blood lines as well as connection to lots of cousins should get this test from FamilyTreeDNA. Earl D.

Hi, My great grandmother Nancy Mariah Beavers Thompson born Ash Flats, AR 1853was supposedly cherokee. J. W. (or M.) Beavers appears in 1850 with wife (Phebe) and two children in Franklin Township, Fulton County. Not on any subsequent census that I can find. I think Nancy was married by the 1870 census. She married Lewis Thompson. There is a record of a William Beavers on the 1817 emigration roll from TN to AR, party of four. I have tried to find a link from William to J. W. but nothing yet. J. W. was born 1823 in AR and Phebe 1825 in TN according to the 1850 census so the timing is right. I think they remained in AR and did not move on to Oklahoma and perhaps William died before census reports or the later Cherokee Rolls were done. I know there has been a lot of information on the ARIZARD list about Beavers families but none of it so far has been helpful. There is a John (Laban) Beavers I think from Ill with a wife who died and left a large family of children and supposedly he married a Phebe Beavers. I don't know if it is the same person as Nancy Mariah Beavers Thompson mother. Anyway, it has always been claimed that Nancy Mariah was Cherokee but no proof that I have found other than family legend. Thanks. Pauline Harris Schwarz

Beth, Ben Julian does not seem to be connected to the other Julian's in Izard County. A tree on Ancestry shows his parents to be James Wright Julian (born in Indiana) and Mary McCorkle, also born in Indiana. There is a picture on Ancestry of his wife, Pearl when she was young. It does say that he died in 1972 in Oklahoma also. Sorry I couldn't help more.

Hi Vera: Thanks you so much for posting the McGinnis information. My mother was Clara Mae McGinnis married to Elmer F. (Red) Harris. Roland Hancel Hanks my great grandfather. Cora Roberta (Bertie) Hanks McGinnis was my grandmother. I suspect the other McGinnis families mentioned are relatives as well. I know that Dink McGinnis was a relative. I did not have some of the obituaries you posted and I am truly grateful to have them. Best regards, Pauline Harris Schwarz
