March 1853 in TN, married Lottie A. Bridges, b. 1859 in AR, married on 25 July 1875, in DeWitt, Arkansas County, Arkansas. They had two children, John H. Jones born December 1876 in Arkansas, and Mary Ann Jones, b. September 1878 in TN. This family is on the 1880 census of Lauderdale County, TN listed as Jones, J.L. and all are listed with initials except Mary A. I don't know who Lottie's parents were, but I do have a copy of the marriage record. I also don't know what happened to Lottie. My grandfather is the son of James and his second wife, Hannah Ella French, he is their only child, born after they separated. James is found next in the 1900 census of Lauderdale county with three more children, Viola, Bird E. (female), and James E., but no wife/mother. I have more information on James L. Jones if you are interested. Dorothy
