John Dorris m. Berintha Jones 1864
John and Berintha (JONES) Dorris married in McDonough County, Illinois about the 25th of August 1864.Berintha was daughter of Owen and Mary Abigail (Cornell) Jones.
Berintha's name was misspelled in many ways.The first two children were born in Illinois and the family then moved to Iowa where they apparently lived in Madison, Dallas and Guthrie Counties.
My Grandmother was named after her Great Aunt Berintha and my father and his cousins visited the family in Iowa in the 1920s and he still remembers the family.I would enjoy hearing more about this family.My information is mostly from Census info.John F. Dorris's father, (according to the 1880 Census) was born in Kentucky.
Thanks much for any help with this Dorris family and their Jones ancestry!
