It certainly seems likely that "your" Elijah JONES 1837 is the nephew of "my" Elijah JONES 1807 Va.Elijah JONES 1807 Va - May 1850 Saline County Illinois was my gt gt grandfather.
I found a little info about the Civil War record for your Elijah.....
Elijah JONES .. Private in the Civil War ... 29th Illinois Infantry... record reports that he was 5'9 3/4 " tall,had light hair,had blue eyes and red complexion.
I have corresponded with a descendent of your Elijah JONES who lived in Potosi, Mo.Anyone that you know?
Would you agree that Daniel JONES 1803 Va and Elijah JONES 1807 Va are most probably brothers?
