Notes for William A. Jones Jr.
Morgan County vital statistics on LDS microfilm #0216835 record birth of William A. Jones on 5 May 1856 to William A. Jones and Barbary Myers.

(The area where William & Barbary lived became part of Rowan County only one month after William Jr. was born, so it is likely that he thought of himself as having been born in Rowan Co.)

There was a gossip item in the Sept 19, 1929 issue of the Rowan County News77 about what sounds like a family reunion, although it isn't so named: "Midland news - Miss Zilla Jones has retuned home from a visit with her sister, Mrs. Chester Howell at Cincinnati O; The Sunday guests of Mr and Mrs W. A. Jones were Mr. and Mrs. Chester Howell of Cin, O, Mrs. A. J. Mynhier of Shelby O, Mr Cleo Jones of New Castle Ind, Mr and Mrs Belenas Hamm of Ashland Ky, Mr and Mrs Aqua Johnson and children, Jesse Jones and children and Mr and Mrs Bill Jones of Zilpo Ky, Mr and Mrs Harry Mullins, Mrs Meadows and Rev Henry Hall all of Clearfield, Mr and Mrs Willie Pettit and Mr and Mrs Emery Collins of Salt Lick, Mr and Mrs J. R. Click and Mr and Mrs Roy D Jones of this place; Mr and Mrs J. R. Lance and dau Alice and Mr Carl Jones of Barberton Oh, arrived here Sunday night to spend the week with friends and relatives; Miss Eula Jones is attending school at the Morehead State Normal; Mr Leonard Jones of Ashland Ky was calling on relatives here Monday."

(Leonard Jones is the son of William A. Jones' brother, Greenberry. I don't know where Eula fits in.)
Census
1880 census of Rowan Co., Pearce Prec. (#3), lists in the home of R. B. & Sarah Alfrey, family #240, William Jones, age 24, laborer. (Sarah is William's sister.)
Notes for William A. & Ida Mae (Family)
The list of children in this family is from William's obituary, so the order of birth is not known. (Obits usually list all sons then all daughters.)
