Since searching for info on my James Jones. born 1761 in N.C. or Va. Maybe raised up in Hanover, VA. Married Susanna White ( daughter of Henry White) in Henerico co. Va. in 1795. Her second marriage I think. Died in Barren co KY in 1809. Can't find him in U.S. Census in 1780,1790 or 1800 but in 1800 maybe in same county with father in law Henry White since Henry White died in Barren co in 1810. James had 3 children, William Jones, born in KY or Va in 1802 and 2 daughters Polly and Patsey. James Left a will in Barren co Ky but William was orphaned out a guardianship bond in Barren Co., Ky. William Married a Judy or Julia Kelly ( Kelley) in barren co., Ky. in 1825. According to a book written in the late 1800's, James was of Irish descent.

Good to see you back, Seven. What progress have you made over the last year, and how can we help you find more? dotsicle

I am looking for the ancestors of James Jones whose wife was Mary [Unknown]. They were in North Carolina until after their daughter, Chloe, was born in 1803. The youngest son, Alson, was born in Tennessee in 1805. By about 1813, they were living in Wayne County, Mississippi on Buckatunna Creek. James had died by 1815, and Mary appears as head of household in the 1820 census. Other sons in this family were possibly James, Wiley, John, Britton, Alfred and Ralph. Britton, Alfred and Alson eventually moved to Winn Parish, Louisiana and lived out their lives there. Chloe married Elias Oden and lived in Kemper County, Mississippi, but moved to Leon County, Texas by 1860. Do any of you recognize this James Jones as being a member of any of the North Carolina Jones families you are researching. Marleen Van Horne

Marleen, The parents of my Wiley E. Jones were supposed to have been from North Carolina. Wiley was born in 1804 in Tenn. Also, Wiley's brother or father might have been called J.J. Do you have any idea when James jones's Wiley was supposed to have been born?
