I am researching the following Jones brothers and sister.

Thomas Jones b. 1808 Pulaski Co. KY, son of Alexander Jones and Susannah
Woozley. He married Catharine America Pittman 1830 Sangamon Co. Illinois.
He migrated to Missouri by approximately 1839-1840. He died in Missouri in
185?

James Jones had been married three times. Sarah Stice 10/21/ 1832, Missouri
Ann Stiles, 11/05/1839, both in Sangamon County Illinois, and Mary Cox? 184?
He had also migrated to Missouri by 1839-1840. James Jones died in Dallas
County Missouri 1855, and is buried in the Macedonia Cemetery.

Burrell/Beryl T. Jones and wife Charlotta Williams. Beryl returned to
Illinois after 1860 reportedly to DeWitt County Illinois, and died in 1864.
His son Rueben is found on the 1880 Census for Oregon as a Gold Miner and
his mother is living in the household with he, his wife and family.

Susan D. Jones the above three brothers’ sister is said to have married a
Caswell Williams in Missouri abt. 1847-48 and died there. I find a Caswell
Williams on the 1860 Mendcino Co. California Census and that a Caswell
Williams sold property in the 1880’s in Green County California and the land
records state that he was living in California at the time.

I have found the brothers on the 1850 Dallas Co. Missouri Census. Although
Thomas Jones states his place of birth as Tennessee, which he may have
believed to be true. His family shortly after his birth went from Pulaski
Co. KY to Bedford Co. Tennessee where they lived a few years then back to
Hart County Ky. Migrating to Wayne Co. Ill. and finally by mid 1820’s
Sangamon Co. Illinois.

I would like to find living descendants of the above families. Although
these Jones’s are not my direct Jones Line, I have information I am willing
to share.

Sincerely,

Nancy M. Boyd
