I will keep a copy of this:) There are so many names the same. I will really search and see if there is a connection:) You are right, It is a long shot, but, that is the only shot I have:) thanks, Juanita << I have very sketchy info re a Dr. Hiram JONES who was in Lincoln Co., Missouri and relocated to Jacksonville, Illinois (just south of Springfield) He had at least two siblings, maybe more---Dr. Richard JONES and Dr. Cumberland George JONES. They were the children of Stephen JONES and Mildred KINNARD. The only date I have is that Hiram JONES died before 1904. >>
