Surnames: Jeans, Jaynes, Jayne, Jean Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/YOC.2ACE/774 Message Board Post: My wife's maiden name is Jeans. She is currently trying to obtain a birth date and place for her great,great grandfather Andrew Jeans who was the Deacon at the Chelsea United Baptist Church he married Elizabeth Freeman (1826). His father was Daniel Jeans who was one of three butchers in Shelburne. Supposedly, Daniel received a King's Bounty in Shelburne (1786). It is likely Daniel was a United Empire Loyalist. We believe his other son was named Isaac (Isaac married an Isabella). In addition to information on Andrew, we are interested in information on Daniel Jeans (Jaynes, Jayne, Jean, etc)
