The Jones Family Our branch of the Jones family come from the | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
John Jones b. 1796 and Mary Benbow b.1803 The earliest Jones ancestors I have discovered are John Jones and his wife Mary Benbow. John was born in 1796 probably in Llandinam. John died between 1841 and 1851. Mary was born in 1803 in Llandinam. Three of their children can be found on the 1841 census. They probably had another son Edward who would have moved out by this date. It is through him I believe our family line goes through. Mary and the family can be seen below living at Borth farm where she continued to live until at least 1871. In 1881 her son Thomas and his family can be found living at Borth Farm and Mary has moved 2 houses away. 1841 Census: Dwelling:

Edward Jones b. about 1825 Edward has been one of the hardest members of my family tree to track down. He is not living at home in the 1841 census. The only recorded mention of him I have come across is on his son's marriage certificate. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
