Donnagene, Thank you very much. You added a whole line to the Jones Family tree, much more progress than I have had in months. I confirms that some family stayed around Zionsville. That and one of the hard names to trace. It is hard enough looking for Jones's much less one named Mary. I am much in your debt and now have some more information to chase out.
