My brick wall is my great grandfather Joshua Jones,Ky,died between 1894 and 1900 possibly.He was married to Susanna Back of the Breathitt County Backs (Ky).I've never found him in census or any kind of records,I'm starting to think he never existed.

My late husbands family is double trouble. His line at his grandparents are John Smith and Ora Jones. I have traced his grandmothers line back to Thomas J Jones/Matilda M McClure. First I find them is in GA in 1850. The census records very saying both NC and SC has place of birth. Thomas served in a GA Regt during the Civil War and was captured in Vicksburg MS, and recieved a pardon. He is later found in Johnson Co AR buried in Knoxville AR. One clue I have to go on which may or may not mean anything was a neighbor living near his son J A Jack Jones in recent census records Johnson County AR Lowell Twp was a Enos Jones from Duplin Co NC. The year Jack is no longer on the census Enos and family has moved also. I think they might possibly be related.

Thomas year of birth was 1823, if anyone has Thomas J Jones in your family please let me know. Thank you
