Hello, Learned more on JONES today.

LEARNED MORE ON JONES TODAY, HURRAY It seems it really may come to pass with a more filled out tree for female Ancestral lines. I was so excited to find this one email sent to me long ago filed in my completed folder. It was able to give me more data on some of the female married names. It also gives the surnames of more family members for us to locate. So wish they would find Noyes (Nois) Jones and Susan Madison Jones and children picture that I was told hung in the hall of his home. Some one took it home and no one seems to to know whom it went to. DO I want it no, but a copy would give me more facial features to look at to pick out kin. Yes, they seemed to follow each other across the country. It makes sense really. Someone once said were they not speaking, no I do not think that was the problem at all. Knowing there were troubles here and there but not to the point of not talking to each other. When I reached this side of the family on the phone they shared so many stories and gave me others names and numbers to contact and learn more. I have learned there is an error in happenings but it is not a big deal to me. Wanting to find the son who went missing in New York between 1850-55. Noel Jones b 1835 Massachussetts. I never found a death notice so wondered if he just didn't want to go west and stayed east. But was told he was killed and family wanted to leave the area for fresher ground. Later Noyes and Susan lost another son due to the CW. William Harrison died 31 Dec 1862 Stones River Battle. His brother was seriously injured and buried as dead. Was found and nursed back to health and walked back to Illinois. Calvin Fay my ancestor, and Great Grandfather. The home he built was almost like a southern mansion. I have a picture of it taken by a helper. (It pays to have a helper when one can not get there to learn data). I had not done that before. Proven Data. Sadly I am stopped with Teague Jones Sr. and Rahamana, (Indian proven,). I was given data from England on his parentage but now 15 years later they are back peddling. Looking for DNA match down the road. Teague fought Narraganset Indians with Richard Berry . Many records in the Daily Minutes for the Town Coucil meetings. The same applies to Richard Berry also very early kin. 28 October 1645 fought the Indians with a group from Yarmouth. England originally said this: His mother Josian Grey remarried after Christopher Jones Jr died of pneamonia. She married one of the other two holders of the ship. It was a 3 way agreement. She requested trip to America to see the land Christopher constantly talked of. Supposedly married and were taken to Boston area. ????? I beleive that is why we can not find data on Teague and due to his father being very ill he never got recorded per their rules??? Need Ship Records and names of the original 2 plus Christopher Jones. My goal was to find where from and no funds to go to England to learn more. Never dreamt they may be connected. But first notice said yes last group said could not prove. Josian Grey had three marriages is all they told me besides there was a baby. More to follow soon. SusiCP1@gmail.com

TRYING AGAIN.===WHEATLAND, WYOMING 1900 TO CURRENT.

YESTERDAY, I started and saved a major blog post to be read. Today It has gone away not to be found. Sorta odd. The post you read I wrote for a year ago spring when everything stopped. I will regenerate a post current to our topics and get it up soon. Wheatland, Wyoming you are on the hot seat. Never really realized what was there yet I knew it mentally just didn't think of it. I have toured the court house and seen my parents Marriage application and approval. Uncle Dick took me to the court house. William Richard Hoffman, ' My family and a great deal of it lived and moved in and out of Wheatland, Wyo for many years. I still have cousins there and Uncle Dick's wife. I am sure I have other cousins there that when Dad died I did not follow up on. I know the Drews' moved away. Uncle Gerald saw two of the boys in Denver area eons ago. I suspect they are all gone. I spoke with Ducima Drew about 30 + years ago. Looking for information on the HULSE, KINNAMON'S, SETTELS. BARTLETT IS FAMILY NAME ALSO. BEATTY, FOLK, FOULK, FEIL, EASTMAN, HOFFMAN, JONES, KERNS, LAWRENCE, MUSSELMAN, SCOTT, SCRANTON, PARRISH, and others. Dad died in 1995 in Santa Rosa, CA. Ray Dee Jones Sr, Mom died several years later. She was at home in Valley Ford, Ca and the property was sold. Dorothy Inez Hoffman Jones. That part of my genealogy is missing on computer have to pull out her Obit. Back up drive died while in Michigan some years back. All of this started because cousin in Wheatland called me to ask about the Dr Huffman that lived Wheatland in the 1920's and maybe later. The older generation talked but could not find clues but thought they could be related. Hoffman and Huffman in many instances is same line. Old Germany only had Hoffman. But when spoken to Englishman it had a UUUU sound so after about 1880 UU shows in their records of people going back . SusiCP1@gmail.com. Born in Greybull, WYO. parents grew up in Wheatland area around much famiily.
