I know he lived in Cherokee County, Tahlequah until his death by drowning in 1914 in the Illinois River. The details concerning his death, his children and what happened to them is all confusion. I am the granddaughter of his sister Mollie Jones. If anyone can help trace this family or any of the Jones in the Tahlequah area who all married Cherokee spouses, it would be greatly appreciated.
