Jennie Jones was born in New York, Rensselaer Co. area, probably in Petersburg with the rest of the kin. She was born 1847 according to records I received from cousin in Iowa. She died supposedly 28 Feb 1874 age 27, in Oak Park, Ill. She is buried in the Concordia Cemetery, Forest Park, Ill.
She was married to Fred Apel. Having spent a week scouring the census for more accurate information very little has come up.
Family story has her married at Crystal Lake, Ill. 1864 . She had two girls: Minnie and Francis Elizabeth.
Minnie was born 9 Dec. 1866, Chicago, ILL area.
Minnie died 4 Aug 1944 Huron, South Dakota. buried Riverside Cemetery.
She had a child: Frances Agnes. No record of last name.
Francis Elizabeth married Al Williams.
Data here runs together: 5 Aug 1869 born, in Chicago, Ill. Believe this applies to Francis due to sister's birth date. Died in Evanston, Ill.
Children were: Ruth died in infancy, Mildred whom married George Earle McCurd.
I would love to learn more about this family's descendants, please. Any pictures of this family out there anywhere?
When more is learned will add to this information.
