I am a descendant of both Ambrose Jones and his brother James...sons of the John Ray Jones and Satira Stanley. I do have a couple of quick questions. Regarding the first Nathaniel Teller Jones...the one who married Nancy Ray. Where did the (Tilman) come from in the posts? I thought the Teller could actually be Tiller, based on the marriage record on Ancestry and Tiller being a more common name in the Amherst County area back in the late 1700s. Also, how do we know this Nathaniel Teller (Tiller) Jones was the son of Nathan Jones and Sarah Hurst? I keep seeing this info, but does anyone have confirmation or documentation of some type? Finally, a question I'm still trying to answer as 'officially' as possible. James Jones was married to Pricy McCown Blankenship. Who were her parents? She was born about 1831-1834. It looks like William Blankenship and Spicey McCown were her parents, but William didn't marry Spicey until 1836. Is William Pricy's father? Is Spicey her mother? Did William and Spicey have an affair before they were married resulting in Pricy? I don't have my notes in front of me so I hope my memory is working. I also think Lemuel Jones was in the 14th KY during the Civil War. Ambrose was in the 39th KY. Thanks...Mitch Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
