Nancy, I have a good bit of info on the family of Edmond (Edmund) Jones of Chatham County - b 1749 d 1834. I don't see a Matthew in his immediate family, but maybe we could compare notes offline.

NC. Have been trying to tie them to Matthew Jones, the big politician-landholder in that area in the middle & late 1700's. Does anyone have any info on him that might help me?
