Good question. Do you know anyone that has the Chalybeate School Cookbook. The history of Chalybeate and Jonesborough is in the front of the book. The history of Tippah County by Andrew Brown doesn't give the name origins. Was your grandma Opal Bennett?

I am a Jones and my family settled in the Jonesborough, Walnut, Tiplersville area. Jonesborough was a settlement that finally went extinct. On the Tippah County GenWeb site there is a picture of the area.
