| Notes for James William ("Jim") Jones |
Rowan Co. birth records, on LDS microfilm #216839, list James W. Jones, b. April 5, 1856, son of James Jones & Emily McClain, place of birth Licking. (Most of the places in this book are the river or fork the family lived near.)
His obituary in the Rowan County News says "Mr. Jim Jones departed this life Oct. 16,1936, at the home of his son Elbert Jones near Bronston, of pneumonia. Age 80 years 5 months and 16 days, he was a member of the Missionary Baptist church. He was married in 1876 to Mrs. Sarrah Clark to this union were born 8 children, 5 of whom survive him: Mrs. Henry Black, Mrs. Silas Caudill, Mrs. Henry Kissinger, and Mrs. Lonnie Davis of this county, and Mrs. Ernest Kiger of Muncie, Ind. The other 3 children and his wife preceded him to the grave. Later he married Mrs. Eveline Brown and to this union were born 5 children. This wife and 3 of the children survive him: Anderson Jones of Carter Co., Mrs. Levy Dehart of Haldeman, and Elbert Jones of near Bronston. The body was brought to the home of his granddaughter, Mrs. Howard Ferguson where he lay in state Friday until Sunday. Services were conducted Saturday night by Rev. T. F. Lyons and on Sunday at the Baptist church at Cemetery hill by Henry Hall. Burial took place in the Caudill Cemetery. All the children were at his bedside except Mrs. Ernest Kiser (sic) who was very ill at that time. Mr. Jones had put in an application for an Old Age Pension only a few days before his death."
Note that the birthdate implied by the age at death in the obituary would be April 30, 1956, which conflicts with the birth record.
Phil Brubaker's Clark file says that Sarah Clark/Black married "little Jimmy" Jones, brother of Susie Jones who married Sarah's brother "little Sammy" Clark. He lists the children of Jimmy & Sarah as "Mary Bell Jones m Henry Kissinger, Rena Jones m Ernest Keiger, Lizzie Jones b. 1877 m Henry Black (parents of Wales Black)" and the children of Jimmy & Evelyn as "Anderson Jones m Luize Puckett, Elbert (Duckleg) Jones m Barbara Black (Mitchell's dau), and Vada Jones m Levi Dehart (Hubbard's son)."
I don't know whether Sarah or Emmy is the daughter who married Lonnie Davis. |
