Jones family of Ky.
I need help!!! I have been looking for information on Joseph B. Jones for a long time and I am getting nowhere. Joseph might have been born in either Va. or Md. between the years of 1765 and 1790. He came to Ky. at aan unknown time. I do know that he died in Campbell/Kenton Co. around 1845. He had three children that I know of. William Jones, Robert Jones and Margaret Jones. William was the administrator of his estate, William was born in Va. according to cencus record, and married a lady from Ireland, they had a least one daughter Mary E. Jones b. in Ky. in 1824 and she married William Gardiner Stephens, son of Edward Stephens and Anna Hume, in Kenton Co. Ky. in 1846. Joseph B. may have been the J.B. Jones who had a merchantile store in Covington, Ky. Margaret Jones may have been married to Thomas Stephens. Gardiner and Mary moved to Texas sometime in the 1880 and then moved to Pierce City, Mo. and both died there in the mid 1890's.
Other names connected with this family are William H. Jones b. 1790 in Va. and married Malinda Stephens b. in Md., this was probably a second marriage for William H., Joseph Foster Jones b. ca 1810 in Ky. and married Susan or Mary Ann Simpson and Samuel Fleming Jones b. ca 1812 in Ky. and he married either Susan or Mary Ann Simpson, I think Joseph and Samuel are probably brothers.
Any help anyone can give me would be most appreciated and I would be happy to share any info I have, including photos from an album that belonged to the family. Thanks Mary Stephens
