Notes for GIDEON MARION JOLLY: From: Joyce Hunt [mailto:hhunt2416@charter.net] Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2007 1:11 PM To: Suzanne Scarbrough Subject: HELLO I meant to tell you that the Mormon relative (Jolley family) donated the book of the Jolley family to the Paris library. At one time Ruth, our cousin, had the one that Uncle Ernest owned. It seems your mother's and mine ,of course, great-granddaddy, Marion Gideon or Gideon Marion Jolley's brother, Henry, followed Joseph Smith to Utah and it is an interesting book-----because of the many wives they had---there are a lot of Jolleys all over the world. Anyhow he went into depth about our origins---starting in France. And of course they were our direct ancestors, too. If I read it right one of our direct ancestor---way back---was a direct descendant of King Edward I. Unfortunately he had many children, some illegitament. I wish I could buy that book. Hope this helps. I also told Cathy Perkins about the book since she was also interested. Marion and Frances Clementine are buried at West Union Cemetery several feet apart. Wayne Perkins told me that he understood that maybe she ---Frances Clementine, who was a Dyer, might have been Cherokee Indian or part. Because of the rumors when her brother came from Ga. to visit. This was a long time ago. He was very dark, black headed. Anyhow something about that---we really don't know. But I do know somewhere in my daddy's family there is Indian blood. And also in the Lackey family. I just thought this might help---in case you haven't already found this all out. Hope you are well and kicking.
