    1. Re: [ohjeffer] will do lookups
    2. Linda, here is what I found. THere are lots of Jones names, and the 2 for William (no middle name) were both civil war vets. There is a William B, WIlliam, H and WIlliam M. No Susan Jones listed, no John Findley Jones. I will quote the biosketch on Lewis Jones, where James Jones is listed, altho I have no way of knowing for sure if he is yours. "Lewis Jones was born in London county, Virginia September 10, 1791. He migrated to Belmont county in 1816 and married Rebecca McPherson in 1817. They settled in Kirkwood township, where he remained and followed farming as his vocation. They reared a family of nine children - Allison, John Mc., Josiah, Amos T., Lorenzo D., William M., Samuel L., Delila and James. Amos T and Delila are deceased. Our subject died, April 21, 1871. His cmpanion is still surviving him and is 83 years of age." ( this was in 1880) Ellen Jones (p.522) is mentioned in the biosketch for John W. Gray as being a wife to one of his sons, but this Ellen gave birth in 1879 and your Ellen was born 1828, so it likely is not the same woman (to give birth at age 51!) This Ellen Jones was the daughter of John Jones. There is no listing for Elizabeth "susan" Jones. hope this has been helpful Beryl, Salt Lake CIty
