My gguncle, Mason Overstreet "Street" Jones(1871-1963) was married to Mary Melivina Jane "Molly" Sechrist(1872-1976). He was the son of Mason Grigsby "Mase" Jones nad Mary Henrietta Crowder. She was the daugter of Julius Lindsay Sechrist and Rhoda Anne Beavers. They had 9 children. The last one still living "Dick" Jones turned 96 in May and is the overseer at the Beth Haven Cemetery in the Bays Community. I have a pic from the Stephenville paper celebrating their 75th Anniversary and one of them in ffront of their home in about 1900-1905 in Erath Co. My other gguncle, Isaac Henry Shipman(1872-1951) was married to Ollie Florence Sechrist(1876-1943). I don't have her info in front pf me at the moment. Mike
