RN #266 Jones Records (3)

This notebook contains the continued work of Caroline Cunningham.  Much of this section contains her hand written notes.  It is officially labeled "Volume Four".  The complete collection is located at the East Carolina Manuscript Collection, J.Y. Joyner Library, East Carolina University, Greenville, NC.  It is listed as "the Caroline Cunningham Collection, Collection No. 56".  These pages do not seem to be numbered, but they arranged alphabetically by first names.  An amazing collection on the Jones surname!

RN #265 Jones Records (2)

This notebook continues the work of Caroline Cunningham, 1965.  It contains "Volume III" of her records which contains those with the JONES surname mostly from NC, SC, and some from VA.  She dedicates these volumes:

"Dedicated to the memory of my great-aunt, who was Mary Christian Jones (Mrs. Joseph Motley) Morehead (1854-1935), daughter of Nancy Harriet Keen and Decatur Jones of Bachelors' Hall, Pittsylvania County, Virginia."

This volume (Volume III) begins with "A. Jones" and ends with "Zorobabel Jones".  It is 246 pages in length.  A monumental work indeed it continues.

There is no index to this volume.

The next set of notebooks contain the work accomplished by Caroline Cunningham 1964.  A monumental work indeed it is.  Jones families of Virginia, North Carolina, and Maryland are mainly included in a series finished by Ms. Cunningham Raleigh, NC.   This notebook [#264] contains Volume I, and Volume II which is arranged in Alphabetical order.  A sample page is shown below.

An index to the 118 pages of Volume I, and an index to the 123 pages of Volume II is included.  What a deal...from Aaron to Zadok Jones!
