Individual Details
Joshua A. Jones
(3 May 1849 - 15 Jan 1915)
NOTE: Joshua Jones was married TWICE
Married 22 years in the 1900 census, yet he had children that would have 26, 25, and 23 by 1900.
In the 1910 census, Joshua and Sarah had been married 30 years (married 1880). He stated he had been married TWO Times.
It is uncertain when the first unknown wife died - based on the 1900 census when Sarah stated she had 9 children, Mary L. would have also been her child, but the 1880 census would suggest Mary L., age 3, was the child of the first wife, if in 1900, Sarah & Joshua had, in fact, been married 22 years.
