Expanding on my earlier post to the list re: THOMAS COCKEY DEYE FORD and BENJAMIN FRANKLIN FORD. Forgot to give dates. ELIZABETH FORD daughter of BENJAMIN FRANKLIN FORD and niece of THOMAS COCKEY DEYE FORD (of Bradley Co.) married Benjamin Franklin Jones (how confusing!!). BF Jones was born in 1822 in TN either Rhea or Hamilton Co. Guessing from the date of birth of BF Jones' father (John) which was 1792 I would have to say that BENJAMIN FRANKLIN FORD had to be born about the same time frame. BF FORD was said to have been born in Maryland, prob. Baltimore Co. and was dead by 1860 in Hamilton Co., TN. He and his first wife, RACHEL (mother of ELIZABETH and her sister RACHEL) reportedly floated down the river from Knoxville to Red Bank, TN. Their home in Red Bank was where Shoney's is now. His 2nd wife was PENSICOLA HAWLEY, a widow. Kathi Jones Hudson khudson@softspikes.com
