David, I am interested in any answers you might get to this query. I have been told that I am also related to this John P. Jones, but I have not proof of this. I only know that he married a Mary Edwards from Tamaqua and he is buried in the Oddfellows Cemetery there. Do you have any more than this? I have my own Jones line - descendants at least - pretty well documented. But the ancestor line is harder simply because they are Joneses in Wales. I know no exact place where Daniel (my ggrandfather) might have come from there. It's always exciting to see someone else interested in the same family. Phylis Heller ps I have already corredponded with a David Jones who is my second cousin, I believe. Could you be that same person? The e-mail address is different, but since I haven't been in touch in quite a while, that could have changed. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 7:21 PM Subject: [PACARBON] John P.

It's interesting that I am researching the Welsh JONES family of Montgomery Co., PA. Many were buried in an Odd Fellows cemetery there. The International Order of Odd Fellows is a fraternal organization, maybe like the Freemasons. Maybe it's just common for Welsh people to be IOOF (?). It's unfortunate that the John P. JONES who d. 1875 is nowhere online at RootsWeb's World Connect.
