    1. [KYBARREN] Brickwall - William JONES
    2. I am searching for further information on the William JONES who is named in the following Barren and Warren County, KY records. I have been told there is possibly a lawsuit in Barren County that names his children. These records were taken from posts made by Sandi Gorin to the SCKY mailing list. My thanks to Sandi. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Robyn Collins ______________ Barren County, KY - Original Land Grants William JONES, 50 acres, Little Barren; cites Joshuay PHIPP's corner, mentions mill site.
