    3. A kind person on the JONES list wrote to me just now about a Leollin T. Jones listed in the 1860 census of Hardeman Co. He was shown as 20 (b ca 1840) and married to Susan, age 20. The only child listed for them was a John F. (or probably T), a year old. This fits so well with my John T.(Thomas or Thompson) JONES, born TN 1859, AND the fact that my John T. named his first son, my grandfather, Lee Ollive/Ollie Lafayette JONES. I am wondering now (since I don't remember ever seeing my grandfather's full name written out on any official document) if his name may really have been Leollin Lafayette, and the "Lee Ollive/Ollie" simply the way it was passed on by word of mouth. I believe he is listed on his death certificate as either Lee or L.L. If anyone knows more about Leollin T. Jones, I'd really appreciate hearing. Thanks, Nancy Harwood Hi Nancy, I found a John F. (or probably T.), 1 year-old, in the 1860 TN census index, Hardeman Co., TN. This John was the son of Leollin T. Jones, 20 (b ca 1840), and Susan, 20. John was the only child listed, so Leollin and Susan were probably recently married.
