    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/oV.2ADE/338.1 Message Board Post: I think some of the Ashburn's you are looking for are named in the biography of Benjamin F. Jones, Mississippi County, Arkansas. According to the biography, B.F. Jones was married to Miss Nannie Asburn daughter of Jack Ashburn. Jack Ashburn was one of the pioneers of the county, who came with his father from Kentucky when he was a boy (in the year 1829). He died when Nannie was a child. His wife was Mary Ball. You can look up the Ashburn family in Goodspeeds History of Mississippi County, Arkansas or go to: rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/ar/mississippi/bios/jonesbf.txt. Benjamin F. Jones had a brother, Thomas B. (T.B.) Jones who was a prominent merchant of Frenchman's Bayou, Arkansas. Benjamin F. Jones and Nannie Ashburn are my husbands great grandparents. They are buried in the Louise Chapel Cemetery. I hope this is your Nan Ashburn family.
