Honoring our Female Ancestors

Yes, It is the month to honor our female ancestors.  Of course for each female we have a counter part.

Suspecting the females probably have more to tell and share than the male in many cases.

The stray ancestress's in one line ironically all start with Susan, Susannah and Susanna and one not proven Susanna.

My parents thought when they named me Susan (Suzanne) that it was a non used name in Dad's family and Mom's family tree.  Yes, I was named Suzanne but the nurse spelt it wrong. Mom said she never totally forgave that nurse for the spelling of my name.

So the tale starts or ends here:

Great Great Granddad Noyes JONES marries  Susan MADISON
She is like an elusive ghost I just  read about.  She was obviously born between  1810 and 1818.
Her tombstone says 1818, some genealogies say 1812, some say 1816. Of course the census is bouncing amongst the data with dates also.
Where was she born you ask?  Census implies three states, children implied four states, in the end she said Mass. We know where she died and when and yes she was moved for a road widening. She was a  brave person to have come from Mass?NY?VT and married in NY and had all children but one in New York. Second born son was born in Mass.  That son never left New York to head to Illinois supposedly died before the trip or the trip came about because of his death?
We know she gave birth to 8 children living to young adults. One dying just before adult hood of that time. 5 boys 3 girls.

Great Great Great Granddad NOEL JONES born abt 1785 in New York(implied) married a
Susannah   whom gave him the son NOYES JONES 1809 in Rensselaer Co. NY court records.
1810 in Census for Federal.

 Never to be found again until Noyes Jones is married with Susan Madison,
living in Petersburg, Rensselaer Co. NY in 1850 census. Also on the  1855 state census of NY.

WHO IS HIS FATHER?

Susan  Madison JONES had five boys that we are aware of and three girls.

So the name Susan, Susanna, Susannah is really not uncommon in the JONES family. It seems each generation liked a Susan, Susanna, or Susannah well enough to marry and pro create the next generation.


Documentation to Silas JONES SR and Susanna Sweet Jones. Documentation for  Noyes Parentage.
We just can not determine for sure but very inclined to feel that Abel JONES was the line that Noel JONES sprang from, born 1785 in NY near Albany area. Also a not proven.

Thankful Thursday & Those Places Thursday

Yes, I am thankful for those places my parents took me as a youth.  They Oregon Trail, the wagon ruts, the river to cross, the mountains that loomed so high. Born in Wyoming near the  Rockies, and traveled all over the western continental states prior to marriage was a internal goal I set.  

It was probably Dad that set that in motion for me to want to accomplish.  By the time I was 13, that was
a priority on my  mind.

We went to Oregon to see our Aunt Ruth and Uncle Fred Feil, we went to New Mexico to see her older sister Aunt Mae, we went to Colorado up the divide to Denver, Ft. Collins and other places family lived.

Aunt Muril was near Denver, Great Uncle Walter was in Ft. Collins, a cousin lived across the border in
Nebraska. I actually had a Great Aunt and Uncle that lived there also.

 Of course to see New Mexico we crossed on  Route 66 in Arizona, what  a gorgeous state, it is so full of rocks, and ruts and natures wonders. I touched on  Texas going to southern New Mexico.

Will never forget when Dad said," What does that mean?"  We were going across deep rolling pockets of land in White Sands" Air Field area. On the top of the hill the sign said,"Watch for Low Flying Airplanes".
Dad says," does that mean if we hear one we should stay low or we should get to the top?" About that time we were in the bottom of a pocket and a plane screamed over our heads, low flying absolutely.
I think had we been on the top we would have been higher than the plane.

We never did figure which would have been best and we had the experience of two of the planes zipping over us.  1958

So much family to see and places to go. The clock is ticking.
