RN #268 Associated Jones

Over the years a group of individual JONES shared a first name.  This often produced a number of brick walls caused by this fact.  This notebook contains a number of names that formed a group of folks that were sorted (or presently being sorted) among the branches.  I have called this my collection of associated Jones names.  The ones included in this notebook are: 1) James , 2) Gabriel , 3) Thornton (surname) , 4) Gabriel (attorney) , 5) Catlet (surname) , 6) Slaughter (surname) , and 7) Taliaferro (surname).  There is also a flow chart of the formation of various counties in VA which these names became interwoven.  It is still a work in progress.

RN # 255 First Names For Jones

This notebook is actually titled "First Names For Jones (Old) Rappahannock Co. VA In Chronological Order 1655 - 1692", but all this would not fit the line above.  (Old) Rappahannock Co. VA played an important role in my JONES family history.  Thus, it was necessary to try and organize, and separate the many Jones of this period and location.  Chronological order is always helpful.

The following "first names" are included:

Leonard 1655
Rice 1655
Thomas 1660
Richard, "mariner" 1662
Robert 1663
