Assuming it was from the Corydon paper in 1935. "At Ninety-eight J.L. Jones Dies Known to many, "Uncle" Johnny lived nearly a century One who answered the call of the pioneer and crossed the plains in 1864, a patriarch of pioneer days, Jonathan Landon Jones, Promise City, died Sunday, May 5 at the unusual age of ninety-seven years, eleven months and three days. Better known as "Uncle Johnny," this member of the Promise City community, was one of those who came to Iowa in 1851, and who followed the gold rush across the plains to Idaho in 1864. He is the last of the fifth generation of Jones who came to America from Wales. He lived in Wayne County for 62 years before moving to his Promise City residence. Jonathan Landon Jones, son of William and Abigail Jones was born near Terre Haute, Indiana, June 2, 1837 and departed this life at the home of his daugher, Mrs. Eliza Printy, of Promise City on May 5, 1935 at the age of 97 years, 11 months and 3 days. In the years of 1851 he came to Iowa with his parents, and settled north of Plano on what is known today as the Emeline Jones farm. He grew to manhood there and was united in marriage to Lucida Jane Sales on Oct. 9, 1859. They moved to the home given to them by his father, the land being entered from the government by him. They lived at this same home 62 years which was broken by the death of his aged companion on Dec. 8, 1921. To this union was born ten children, three sons and seven daughters.

He and his wife united with the Primitive Baptist church called Providence near Plano and remained faithful to the end. Besides the children he leaves 40 grandchildren and a number of great great great grandchildren and a host of relatives and friends. He was the last of the immediate family, all the others having preceded him in death. Only one aged sister-in-law, Emeline Jones remains. It can be said of him like the Patriarch of old that he had fought a good fight and finished the work that the master had sent him to do. And there is therefore laid up for him a crown on glory which the rightous Lord shall give for those who love his papearing. Blessed are the dear which die in the Lord from henceforth; yea saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them."

The Samuel JONES Jr. family settled west of Lineville on the MO-IA border. They lived in Iowa, but most of the farmland was in Missouri just across the gravel road. Samuel JONES was born at Copley Twnp, Summit Co., Ohio in 1824. All of his ten siblings were also born there. Charles and Mary (Polly) Jones KENTCH also lived nearby. Mary was the oldest of the eleven JONES siblings. I know that Samuel JONES Sr. was the father of the eleven children, but I need to learn who his spouse was, and the mother of these eleven children. Before coming to Lineville, this JONES family settled in the Ft. Madison, Lee County Iowa area and across the Miss. River at Niota and Pontoosuc, Hancock Co. Illinois. Samuel Jones Sr. and a number of his children and families are buried at Zeh Cemetery at Niota, Illinois. (Rachel Jones Isenberger, William Jones are two of the siblings also buried here along with their families. Julie Jones Beenblossom

George Allman was born in Washington County, Pennsylvania, and when a young man went to Ohio, and in the war of 1812 was in an Ohio battalion. The mother was a native of Massachusetts. Daniel Allman came to Iowa in 1841, with his brother William, and lived in Van Buren County two years. Returning to Ohio he was married April 5, 1843, to Deborah Williamson, who was born in Bethlehem, Stark County, December 3, 1823, a daughter of James and Margaret L.(Robinson)Williamson, natives of Pennsylvania. The following month they located in Keosauqua, Iowa. Mr. Allman paid $150 for 320 acres of land, and a rude log cabin, sixteen feet square. They started in life poor, financially, but rich in energy and ambition, and by combining their forces they were successful. The next year, 1844, they moved to Marion County, an! d paid $400 for 160 acres of land, where they lived three years, when they sold out and spent two years in Portage County, Ohio. In 1850 they returned to Iowa, and settled in Wapello County, again starting on new land. Mr. Allman cut the logs for his cabin one day, hauled them to the site chosen the next day, raised his cabin the third day, and the fourth day moved into it. It was fourteen feet square, with a puncheon roof and floor, but was comfortable, and served them until a better one could be built. He made a good farm of his land and erected good buildings, living there until the spring of 1864, when he moved to Union Township, Wayne County, and bought the farm where he now lives, of John Steck. In politics Mr. Allman is a Democrat, voting now with the Greenback party. He and his wife are members of the Christian church. They have seven children-Eliza, wife of W. H. Brown, of Pottawattomie County, Iowa; Emeline M., wife of L. Croxile, of Holt County, Nebraska; Lu! cinda M., wife of Jacob S. Morrett, of Union Township; Winfield Scott, a farmer in Cowley County, Kansas; George W., at home; Olney B., wife of W. H. Davis, of Cowley County, Kansas, and Ella J., wife of J. O. Snell, of Union Township. One daughter-Elizabeth A., married Oliver Barker, of Corydon, and died January 8, 1872, leaving three children-Eva, Albert and Edward.
