Benjamin Jones, Wilkes/Warren Co - 1700s
I am seeking information on the family of Benjamin Jones who reportedly came from Virginia and settled in the Long Creek area of then Wilkes (now Warren) County in the 1780s.His son Hendley Jones, born 1772 in Virginia, married Mary Baker, daughter of Charles and Priscilla Baker.I think that he may have come from Amelia County, Virginia but have no proof. In 1776, a Benjamin Jones witnessed the will of a William Jones in Amelia County. There was a Walker family in that area who married into the Jones family.Hendley and Mary Jones named one of their sons Walker Perry Jones, perhaps for the Virginia Walkers.
Any information on the Virginia origins of this family will be appreciated.
