George Jones

(1812 - )



1840 Census. Monroe Co KY.
George Jones: 2m under 10 [James & Wm T.], 1m 20-30 [George]. 1f under 10 [Sarah], 1f 20-30 [Louann]
He was living next to Archibald Poindexter, probably his brother-in-law.

George Jones' wife was Louana as given in the 1850, 1860, and 1880 Censuses of Dade Co. Their sons James, William & Elisha as shown in 1850, have households of their own in Dade Co in 1860. There was also a daughter Sarah.

1850 Census, Dade Co MO, p.294, Dwelling 451. George Jones, age 38, b. KY, Louana, age 37 also b. KY. James age 17 KY, William age 15 MO, Sarah age 12 KY, Elisha age 9 KY. [From the births of the children it would appear they had left Kentucky for Missouri about 1836, stayed a couple of years or so, then went back to Kenrucky until after the birth of Elisha, and returned to Missouri with some of the other Jones families..

1860 Dade Co MO, Polk Twp
p.43, Dwelling 188; Elisha M. Jones age 19 b. KY with Sarah E. age 15. Married within the year. This would be the youngest son of George & Luana.
p.44, Dwelling 295; William T. Jones, age 26, Arminda E 24, Sarah A. 2 and Martha 1. Son of George. There is another William T. Jones, age 29 living in the midst of these Jones families; he was also born in KY and his wife is Mary age 26 b. TN with 3 small children - is this a son of the brother Thomas that I can find no trace of, or is he from another Jones family?
p.45, Dwelling 298; James Jones age 25 b. KY, Artemisa age 22 and Kisya [Kisiah?] A. age 1/12.
p.45, Dwelling 299; George Jones age 48 and Luana age 46. This would account for all the children accept Sarah who was 12 in 1850 and is likely married.

Jones, age 6 was living in South Twp with Andrew & Sarah Gilmore, both age 60, near many other members of the Jones families. George & Elisha are grandsons as shown by the 1880 census. The son Elisha doesn't appear again - are these his orphaned sons?
