I don't know whether this will be any help or not, but I have another Jolly-Florey connection in Illinois.Talitha Jolly married Oct. 29, 1836 in Schuyler County to Isaac Rouse.Their daughter Amanda married on Sept. 13, 1857 in Bushnell, McDonough Co. to William Franklin Florey.Talitha was a daughter of Bourland Boling Jolley who settled in Morgan Co. in 1828.He had a number of children, but I have the names of only four.Aside from Talitha, he had Elisha G., Stephen Young, and Lourana.I have checked over what I have on the Jolly/Jolleys, and don't find an eligible Frank of the right age, but my knowledge of Jolly descendants in this family is very fragmentary.This family settled initially in Morgan and Schuyler Cos, then various members moved north into Fulton and McDonough Cos., and eventually into Hancock Co.Macon is quite a way east of these counties, but a member of the family could have drifted east.
Good luck.
