    3. I am hoping to obtain some more information about my Jones 4th g-grandparents. Much of what I know about them comes from a brief biography of my 3rd g-grandfather Harrison Jones. Harrison was the second of three children born to William and Lucy (Thompson) Jones. He was born 12 Jun 1812 in Maysville, KY. The bio says that William and Lucy were both natives of KY of Welsh descent. I have not been able to find any record in or around Mason County, KY of the marriage of William Jones and Lucy Thompson. There are two William Jones' that appear on census' in Mason County in 1810, but no way of knowing if either of them is him. The children of William and Lucy Jones were: Resin V. Jones b. abt. 1806 Harrison Jones b. 12 Jun 1812 Angeline Jones b.4 Jul 1814 According to the bio, William would have left his family in Miami County, OH and gone to New Orleans in about 1821. He reportedly died there of Yellow Fever. I know that Lucy, her daughter and oldest son went to Indiana after this. Lucy died 20 Jul 1850 and was buried in the Beard Family Cemetery near Owasco, Carroll County, IN. She was 65 years, 9 months old. William and Lucy have been my brick wall in the Jones line for some time now. I could really use a bit of help on this one. Thanks, Bill Jones Winfield, KS Blue Streak [email protected] Why Wait?
