Hello.  My Great grandmother was Annie Jones, b 7 Oct 1855 in England (probably Cheshire).  She married William Roberts b. 12 Feb 1855 in Nantwich, Cheshire, England on 18 July 1875 in Monks Coppenhal, Chester, England.  Later that year she and William came to Canada and raised their family in Toronto.  Annie's father was William Jones. Annie died 21 Dec 1946 in Toronto.

I am searching for my Jones line from Kentucky. My 2x Great Grandparents were Harry Jones and Jane Bottoms, married June 20, 1849 in Mercer County, Kentucky. I don't know how many children they had and I don't have their dates of birth or death. Their son, John William Jones (1859-1937) was my Great Grandfather who married Sarah Ellen Lucas (1859-1933) on June 5, 1881 in Benton, Missouri and they had eleven children: Ocean Frances Jones, James Richard Jones, William Henry Jones, Laura Belle Jones, Harrison Elmer Jones, Edgar Lee Jones (died in infancy), Thomas Lonnie Jones, Bertha May Jones, Mary Alice Lena Jones, Robert Wesley Jones and Chester Pete Jones.

In response to Gene Dixon post dated July 2009. 

Wallace Jones 1773, Newberry Co., SC and wife Rachel Patty. Wallace son of

Wallace Jones 1742, Surry Co., VA and wife Elizabeth Fritz.

Because both of the above have been titled as Jr.  the natural conclusion was that

Wallace 1742 was the son of Wallis Jones 1710 VA died Edgecombe (Halifax) Co., NC.

However, recently placed on-line is;  Newberry County, South Carolina: Historical and

Genealogical Annals by George Leland Summer. . . see page 352/3. . . .

Wallace Jones Sr. moved from Newberry District to Greenville Dist; later he moved to

Ohio with the Quakers, about year 1808.  He was known as "Cap" Jones on account of

services as a as a patriot in the Rev. War.  He was born 1742, married Elizabeth Fritz,

who was born 1744.  He died 1823 and his widow 1830.  He was the son of Henry Jones.

Their children were:  Wallace Jr. and wife Rachel, etc. . . . . . . .

 

The above is either an error or every tree I have seen on this family (which is my family) has

been laboring under the misconception of the usage of Jr. Sr. and the possible confusion of

our ancestors on how to use these descriptive phases.   Any help on the resolve of quandry?
