W. Jones age 37 Born abt 1843, Tennessee [his parents were born in TN] Spouse; America J.Jones age 20 b abt 1860, Kentucky [her parents b KY] Four children,{all born KY} Charly A,12 Wm, M., 9 Mimi L., 7 Lilly E., 5 ******** Did your George serve in the Civil War. [note,the one above would be of the right age] Civil War Pension: A pension was filed in TN by the widow of a George W Jones. Both names, America Jane and George W Jones are quite common in the time frame you are searching, it can be very confusing! Also, consider your America Jane may not be listed in census or other records as Indian. You have an interesting family story, hope you find answers.
