Notes
Adoption
Benjamin was the son of John W. Jones and Clarisa Miller, married 13 Oct 1886 in Raleigh County. There are indications that John W. Jones was Mahala's brother or half-brother. Freddie Spradlin found the following;1860 Raleigh Co Census: Nancy JONES 36 widowed, Mahala 19, Martha 14, James 12, John 10, Donald 8, Elizabeth 7, and Roxa 5.
From the marriages of Elizabeth and James in Raleigh County, this Nancy was
the widow of Enoch B. Jones, who married Nancy MORRIS 30 May 1844 in Fayette Co. Nancy SAY had married Jacob MORRIS in 1843. If this is the same Mahala, she was probably born before the marriage of Nancy Say and Jacob Morris.
