From Northumberland Co., VA a Robert Jones md. Elizabeth Brereton. Brereton's married with the Howsens of Northumberland, as well.
Another Robert JOnes married Elizabeth Howson on 7/26/1744 in Northumberland.
I also found a John Howson who married a Sarah Jones on 7/25/1762 in Granville Co., NC.
Is there any relation between these Jones' and Russell Jones of Albemarle Co., VA in the 1770's and Wilkes Co., NC ca 1784? This Russell JOnes was well acquainted with Rowland, Bennett and Blalock in Albemarle Co., VA and in Wilkes Co., NC.
There was also found a Robt Jones who died in Northumberland Co., VA in 1676 who was reportedly a brother of Orlando Jones (both descendants of Rev. Rowland Jones, the pastor of Bruton Parish, Williamsburg, VA). Orlando Jones was the grandfather of Martha Dandridge Washington (Mrs. George) andher grandaughter, Mary Custis Lee (Mrs. Robert E. Lee)
Note that Leonard Howson (of Northumberland Co.) married Elizabeth Le, d/o Richard Henry Lee.
