Andrew F Jones
Looking for confirmation of Andrew F Jones' parentage.Andrew F Jones born Mar 1826 in North Carolina married Harriet Elizabeth Shortridge (born Aug 1827) abt 1847 we're assuming marriage took place in Kentucky but do not have any documentation as of yet to back this up.1850 census has them living in District 1, Daviees, Kentucky, 1870 and 1880 census has the family living in Upper Town, Daviees, Kentucky, 1900 census has them living in Magisterial District 8, Upper Town (North Part), Daviees, Kentucky.
Andrew F and Harriet Elizabeth had five children that we know of:
William J Jones born Feb 1849 in Kentucky, never married as far as we know
Laura Ann "Nannie" Jones born 22 Oct 1852 Daviees County, Kentucky, married Lee Bell 19 Apr 1874 Daviees County, Kentucky, died 8 Feb 1937 Louisville, Jefferson, Kentucky
Betty Wren Jones born 15 Oct 1854 Daviees County, Kentucky as she does not appear on any census record we have found to date we're assuming she died young.
Andrew C Jones born 6 Jul 1856 Daviees County, Kentucky, again we've been unable to locate him on any census record, so we're assuming that he may have died young.
James "John" Wesley Jones born May 1863 Owensboro, Daviees, Kentucky, married 11 Feb 1889 in Daviees County, Kentucky to Miranda Winifred "Winnie" Knott born 11 Feb 1868 Owensboro, Daviees, Kentucky.James Wesley died 11 May 1936 in Chicago, Cook, Illinois.
We think Andrew F Jones parents may have been John W Jones born abt 1785 in North Carolina and Nancy Krik born abt 1787 in North Carolina.John W Jones was living in District 1, Daviees, Kentucky in 1850 with his son, who we think is Andrew F Jones' brother, Paraim Jones born abt 1829 in Kentucky.Does anyone have any information on this family?Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance!
