Francis Benton JONES |
- Because this Francis B Jones was living next to Elijah Jones in the 1860 census, I had assumed that they were brothers. I no longer think that they are brothers.
I suspect that they are related. It looks like there were quite a few Jones families who came from the Duplin County, NC area, but other supporting documentation does not support them being brothers.
It really appears that Francis B Jones was born in 1809.
The father of Elijah, John Jones, does not marry Ally Daile until 19 Aug 1816.
Furthermore, in the 1820 census, the one that I believe is accurate for John Jones (the father), they only have one child listed. That is a daughter, under 10, who I believe is Mary.

In the June 22, 1860 Census, Francis P Jones (50 yrs old-North Carolina) is living next to Elijah Jones. I am assuming that Francis is a brother to the father of Elijah. Both came from North Carolina and his age is consistent with that of Mary (assumed mother). Therefore, wife Dorothy (46 yrs old-North Carolina) and children are assumed to be of the same family.

| Notes |
- This still could be a brother to Elijah and Stephen, because his age would be a little older than Stephen. If he is a brother to John, he would have been born almost 30 years after him. He could also be a cousin. So, I still am not convinced that this is a connection or what it is.
- Crowder Family History shows marriage date as Oct. 1, 1830 in Duplin, North Carolina (See file folder)
Because of the ages and places of birth, the family must have moved to Tennessee sometime between 1849 and 1952.
Notes from Crowder Jr. Family Tree show death date and location, and Benton as middle name.
