Arvilla JONES Johnson daughter of Noyes and Susan JONES

Noyes Jones and Susan Madison Jones children:  Henry George/George Henry,  Noel,  Louise

Arvilla* b abt 1840 NY,  William Harrison CW Dcd,  Calvin Fay**,  Jennie b 1847 d 28 Feb 1874 m

Fred Apel,  Lucy b abt 1858 m William Fuller,  last is Charles E Jones in Petersburg area of Rensselaer

Co. NY as best we know. He is in the 1850 census for NY, prior moving to Nunda, ILL with family as infant/child.

We are going to talk a bit about  Louise Arvilla*.  Calvin and Arvilla was the recipients of their parents home. I believe they purchased it.  Have paper work here somewhere.

When Addison died she married his brother Alfred Johnson. The Johnson's were also from New York.
Addison Johnson dies 1875  in Iowa and is born 1838 in NY

Lois (Louise) Arvilla Jones Johnson wdw of Addison married Alfred Johnson 8 June 1876  aged 39.

Alfred dies 20 Oct 1880 buried in Oak Hill Cemetery, Nashua, IA.

Seems sad to read she has buried two husbands that were brothers.  A web page says that his parents were Thomas Johnson and Sarah Thurston Johnson.  I am hoping to hear more from the presenter on this family.

1880 census  Alfred is alive yet, and they have one child.

So one child shows from  Alfred and Arvilla, Arthur J aged 3

The others are Addison and Arvilla's children.

I am hoping we can find some of the down line kin of these people.

I can look for Clark Gilmore for starts, and Charles F Johnson to locate girls names.

Where is May Johnson she does not show in 1870 census?  But does in 1880, maybe working for some one? Terribly young for that. Or was Charles born before May???

Ray Dee Jones and Mother (Ida) Foulk Jones, Thankful Thursday

Ray Jones was born 19 May 1913 in Waterloo, Iowa.  He and his mother moved to Wheatland, Wyoming area when he was about 13 months old.  His father is listed in the 1910 census for Salt Creek,  Natrona, Wyo.  His father was Carl Fremont Jones and Victoria Mae (Ida) Foulk Jones was his mother.  

Ray added the Dee to his name when he got his Social Security due to the amount of Ray Jones in the system. This was in the late 1940's or could have been early 1950's.

Ray and his younger siblings lived in  Wheatland, Wyoming and then Casper, Wyoming, coming back to Wheatland as a teenager. His family was split and raised by nieghbors and friends, except the two youngest girls whom stayed with their Mom whom then moved to Cheyenne, Wyoming.

Dad worked for Morris Thomas from the time he was 13 until he married and moved up to Greybull, Wyoming working for Howard Flitner at the Diamond Tail Ranch, in Greybull, Wyo.

Dad (Ray) married 3 September 1938 to Dorothy Inez Hoffman of Wheatland, Wyoming.

Having always enjoyed the story he told of seeing Mom for the first time formally I never tired of.

He worked part time with her Dad on the Culvert (water ditch) for the area and often rode past Grandad's home after working, heading to his bunk on the Thomas Ranch and had seen Mom and her siblings from a distance.  One day after a hot day of moving water for the ranches crops he and his future Father-in-law rode up to the Hoffman homestead. The ladies were cleaning and preparing tomatoes (by large tubs full) to can for the winter months. Mom's sibling, Marie had a huge crush on my Dad and tried to impress Dad with her antics. She implied she could get a date from Dad if she washed Mom's face with tomatoes, which she attempted to do. Attempt is all I can say because Dad said Mom totally bathed her sister in tomatoes.  Mom was embarrassed and livid. (Mom was not near as forward as my beloved Aunt Marie, so she was very embarrassed)  After they cleaned up and served the men Lemonade, her father introduced his coworker to Dorothy(Mom).  Ultimately, the rest is history.
Their courtship had many rocky points because her sister did not give up easy but she never knew she was never in the running. Years later, I was with them when they all shared the story with me about the Tomato Fight Day. They all had a good laugh.  Aunt Marie had an awesome husband in her future, she just did not know it yet.

Dad told me he knew the first time he ever saw Mom out in the fields working with her Dad that someday he would marry her.

Calvin Fay Jones son of Noyes and Susan Jones

As the Jones saga continues, we will jump to child number 5, awaiting data on 1. Henry George's line from his descendant. 2.  Noel dcd young no lineage, 3.Arvilla's will be fun, 4.William H dcd from CW and no heirs, 6.Jennie's line will be intriguing, and 7. Great Uncle Charles I felt I knew from all Grandparents said about him, so have much on them to share. Both my Dad and Uncle knew this family well.

Recapturing the data of Noyes and Susan Madison Jones of New York to Nunda, McHenry Co., Ill. to Chickasaw County area after 1865, probably closer to 1867, father Noel Jones and Susannah Jones of New York. Silas JONES Sr line., Teague Jones line.

Calvin Fay Jones is listed as Calvin Jones in the 1860 census for Nunda, McHenry Co. Ill

After several campaigns, he looses his brother William Harrison and almost looses his life in Tennessee. He walks home after being nursed back to health by a Black Family that heard him moaning in the dirt after the skirmish ended and the troops had backed off. (Makes one wonder how many were not dead but were buried in the lose dirt.)

By 1868 he has moved to  Chickasaw County area, marriage to wife is in her Father's home at this address. Butler, Butler Co. Iowa.  5 July 1868. I have copy of certificate.

(Lucky me, I picked 5 July for my wedding date, suspect he was talking to me :>) )(another story)

1880 shows them living in Bradford, Chickasaw County, Iowa. 1880 Census. His father lived at this time in this area and may have been same home. His Father according to Will divided the land between Calvin and his sister Arvilla Jones Johnson. The others were taken care of.

The irony of some of his dedication to his country was, he was given a Pension when he came back from Tennessee and then 8 weeks or so later he re enlists. Losing everything for a Pension. My file is full of the letters that it took for neighbors, family and friends to write to verify he was who he was and why he deserved a Pension which he finally started receiving late in the 1890's near as I can figure.
What a shame he could have had it from 1868 on.
