I am all for the Demolition of Jones Brick Walls. Please include our Northerners. My James A. Jones was born in NY October 11, 1831. In 1850 census he was working as a farm worker for Philander Hale in Warsaw, Wyoming Co., NY. By 1860 he had married Philander and Clara Hatch Hale's daughter Clarissa and had three children: Ida Jones (1854-1923) who married Rollin Hale (her first cousin, son of Philander's brother William); Francis R. Jones (1857-1867) and Margaret Jones (1866-1942). In the 1860 census Clarissa is living with her parents and the two older children in Warsaw. James is not to be found. Francis and James are buried in the Warsaw Cemetery and James died Nov. 14, 1866 in Buffalo, NY. I would really like to find his parents, as well as birth and marriage records. After his death Clarissa remarried and moved to Washington State along with her daughters Ida and Margaret.
