Looking more closely at what you posted; now that you know that I am
descended from Keziah and Abraham Jones; it might interest you to
know that #2 Jonathan is married to Lydia Jones. Lydia, Abraham and
Joseph were brothers and sister. They are the children of John Jones and
Sarah Lobdell.

Keziah was born in Holliston, MA and died 29 June 1791 in Milford,
Worcester County, MA.

The source of my information comes from "Ancestry of Solomon
Jones of Kiantone, Chautauqua County, NY" by Madelyn Jones
Osgood on file at the Fenton Historical Society, Jamestown, NY.
She quotes her sources as:
Adin Ballou - History of Milford, Mass.
Hull VR
Mendon VR
Milford VR
She also has the footnote:
Jonathan Whitney was the son of Jonathan & Susannah of
Mendon - see Family Records for Holbrook & Whitney.
