NOYES JONES Children's Partial Lines, Descendants of Teague Jones Sr.

 Long, long ago, in an ancient land, our family was a beginning.  They obviously migrated over many rivers, streams, hills and mountains to get to the Ocean and come to the USA.

Research has taken me to a ships captain of an important ship that helped found the USA.
If the records are correct this man is our ancestor.  If not whom ever he/ she was they still had to endure many, many hardships and changes.

I pick up our line with very solid facts at Teague JONES SR. married to an Indian maiden, which took more than 50 years of research to finding the right data to verify this.  Rumor has always been spread in the tree that Teague's wife was of Indian heritage.

My first strong exposure was when I met a Nickerson Researcher in the early 1990's.  I also have something that was supposed to be handed down, down and down to verify her authenticity.
I sure hope I still have it.

Teague and Rahamana's daughter Rahamana married a Nickerson. With our exchange of information,
we felt strong about this link. Alas that Nickerson is now gone. Others have now taken his place.

We are from Teague and Rahamana's son Josiah Jones.
Teague and Rahamana had so far proven: Josiah, Rahama, Elizabeth, Samuel, Jeremiah and Teague Jr.
I am not totally sure which way her name and daughter's name is spelt. It seems there is a  different spelling with each family line. Her father was Pemaquid Abenaki{(Chief) Samoset.} .   I had thought he was grandfather. (a blog about this exists). Another research found this information.  They were of the Abenaki people.
This is shared by another descendant. {(He is from daughter Elizabeth whom married Samuel Bassett.
We have as her mother Wampanag ("Margaret," not really, Colonial name) eMattchee.) by distant cousin.
I have her birth 1624 death 1661 in Barnstable. Mass.} Teague born abt 1620 died abt 1683 Yarmouth Mass.  Barnstable area. 

Teague Jones and friend Richard Berry fought the Narraganset Indians with others, 28 Oct 1645, from Yarmouth. 

Having much more but do not wish to say more now.

Josiah Jones b 1652 Yarmouth, Mass d 1744 East Greenwich, RI.  6 children 4 dau, 2 sons
Josiah mar Elizabeth Berry, dau of Richard Berry and Alice. I have more.  ** to come later.

Their son Seth born 1693 Yarmouth Mass (RI)? died East Greenwich RI. Two stories have been found about the disagreement in Yarmouth and part of the family existing Yarmouth.  
Seth mar Priscilla Hamilton(Hamblin). Her mother was Elizabeth Wildes 1653-1718.
Priscilla b 1694ca.  Several children, one being Silas Jones Sr. much information.

Silas Jones Sr b 11 May 1721 Greenwich, Rhode Island m 21 Nov 1742 East Greenwich, RI.
Susanna SWEET b 3 May 1725  Greenwich, RI.  12 to 13 children. One child is a grandchild and many put him as son. Having all their names. 

The next in line is either Roscomb or Abel.  A letter declares Noel as his grandson but does not state his father. 

Abel is the oldest and I find our family near him for 30 years and after Abel's death the family seemed to meld away.
Others say Roscom/Ruscomb is the father. either one still takes us back to Teague.  

(A tip when writing a letter if you say your father please add the name) I spoke to Mabel Hewitt about this before her passing. Wish I had known these women better. Hulda Allen was the other huge helper. Besides Bennington Library, Renssaeler Co Historical Society, Town Historians, 2 were cousins of distance. RI Vital Records, Yarmouth Town Council Minutes, etc.

My distant cousin and( first a dear friend) before we learned related. Shirley Becker has a full tree on line called Plain Sweets. Think it was on Rootsweb.com. Hope it shows up again. Years of research there by her. 

Noel Jones grandson of Silas and Susanna Sweet b abt 1785 near Albany, NY.  also  married a Susannah. We find them on the 1810 census. We find them in the Petersburg Court House Records saying they had Noyes Jones 1809. Something happens I do not find him again or her. I think Abel raised Noyes, census implies this.  Have much more on this.

Noyes Jones tombstone says 1808 for birth but court records said 1809 in his fathers hand. All other data the same.  married 1832 Mount Holyoke, Mass. (implied)  Some say yes.
Census included. Census also has conflicting info from each child. 

We know he died 17 April 1881 Chickasaw Co. Bradford border,  Iowa. I was told the home was on the county lines.  (That is another story about this family including my Dad).

Susan Madison b 24 March 1818 VT d 13 Feb 1881 Chickasaw CO. IA  Her family in VT used Mattison. I learned a year ago.  One census puts her brother near her for a short period in Iowa. Later found he went back to VT and his son went to Ny.

Now down to the so called Current generations:

Henry George*, Noel, William Harrison, Calvin Fay** , Jennie, Charles E, Arvilla, and Lucy Loretta.

Henry  G Jones* b 3 Sept 1834 Petersburg? Renssaeler Co. NY.

Noel b 1835 in Renssaeler Co. NY is supposedly to have died in NY/Mass before they came to Ill. then IA. Or he elected to not go with family. I have spent 40 years looking for answers there.

*Carolin Forbes and Charles E Jones of Nashua are from the first born son.  Henry George and be aware some times they flip that name.

William Harrison Jones b1841 Renssaeler Co. NY, dcd at Stone River Battle, Tenn. 31 Dec 1862 where we almost lost Calvin.

Genealogy and Family and DNA..

  Genealogy and Family and DNA  by Susi Pentico


 Was chatting with an acquaintance the other day and was surprised at some of the comments but thrilled  too.

 How many have been following any thing on the DNA Projects that various businesses are doing?

 How much do you know about the Migration of the human being in the last 100,000, 000 years.?

 That migration brings lots of great questions that some have touched on many have ignored and some have found intriguing.

Some were saying if your lineage never left Africa your DNA would not change.  MMMM I am not so sure because you may not have moved but what about those that moved into the region?  That exposes you to other genetics right?

Many of us are like the ad thinking he was one and learning he was another.  A great program was done by a talk show host last year? and he had the members of audience tested.  Many of those that had discomfort about other ethnicities found they carried that ethnicity.  We are not whom we think we are.  We are what our ancestors chose at the time and endured, some freely and willing others not so freely or willing.

Actually that ad is misleading because he still was what they said just not as high a ratio as he expected.  Dad used to say, " We are all dukes mixture, or Heinz 57".

There is no pure race anywhere.  We are all of color. Just shades of color.. White is clear, no one is white*, we are shades of beige, brown, yellow, & black.  Scientists say*

 So lets say we migrate up into the middle Europe, lets say we stay there 2,000 years, we pick up the culture and diets and language. Wars start, we moved some of us east to Russian and Asian areas some west to France and Germany and Baltic States. Of course we end up in Scotland and Ireland and England and  Sweden, Finland too.

Weather changes how we do things. Wear more clothes, wear less clothes, eat different diets, drink different brews. Medical things are shared and learned as we go along.

The biggest thing to me is how we treat each other.  All those other things do not matter. Are we caring and kind and willing to step to the plate for fellow MAN/WOMAN?

We buy latte's and some are dying of thirst.  We have steak and someone else maybe eating rat or wishing they were.  Our world is very, very diverse place with many diverse people in it.

How often do we look beyond our on little playing field? Do we reach out and assist others?

One reason I tend to like Genealogy is MOST carry a desire to learn and be exposed to different
topics and ideas.  About the time we have a line "nailed down", something pops up that turns that
into a new adventure.

No one should be ashamed of whom they are.  Do your best accept your neighbors and plow forward to learn more about our species.

So we were African moved to Egypt then to Bavaria then Norway then Scotland then Canada then to other regions..  Depending how long or different lines are in any one region as to what we tend to learn on DNA, as to what we call ourselves today.

Recently the Bone Marrow transplant brought up a complete different scenario.  Are the companies asking if this has happened to their customer? I only learned of this, this last weekend.  Bringing up another one I am going to ask my company? If you had a complete blood change as an Infant does it change your DNA compound?  If it does I think it doesn't completely change. The body was already created and designed.  The change came after all this was done.

So we are whom we are with dukes mix in the background from the beginning.  Would love to read more comments on this topic. See this is also medical genealogy.
