Parents of “Jinny” Jean Jones

Name Ambrose Jones

            Birth: 10 Aug 1756, Virginia

            Death: 12 Jun 1833, Morgan Co., Kentucky

            Burial: South Fork Cem., Morgan Co., Kentucky

            Father: UNKNOWN Jones

 

            Marriage: 30 DEC 1784 in Linville Bap.Ch.Monroe Co., VA
 

            Spouse: Martha Craig

            Birth: 10 Aug 1766, Virginia

            Death: 22 Oct 1849, Morgan Co., Kentucky

            Father: William Daniel Craig (~1745-1829)

Mother: Elizabeth Nickell (~1748-~1808)

 

 

According to Veteran's Administration records, Ambrose enlisted in the

      army in Augusta Co., VA, in 1777, for three years service. He served as a

      private in Capt. Thomas Bell's and Breckinridge's companies and in Col.

      Grayson's and Nathaniel Gist's 16th Regiment. He was promoted to Corporal

      in October 1778, and was with Washington at Valley Forge during the winter

      of 1778. His military record shows that he was among the sick that winter.

 He was taken prisoner at the siege of Charleston in 1780, escaped, and reached home     18 days before his enlistment expired.(see file at rootsweb for a copy of this service   record.

 

      He came to Kentucky from Greenbriar Co., VA, about 1788, and settled in

      Floyd Co. at the mouth of Jones Creek, which is named after him. He was

      ordained as a Baptist minister in 1811, and was a member of the South Fork

      Baptist church in Malone, Morgan Co. He was one of the preachers who

      established the Burning Springs Association in 1813. Early records for the

      family are in Floyd Co., and later ones are in Morgan Co., but this does

      not indicate a migration - it is due to Ambrose having settled in the part

      of Floyd Co. that became Morgan Co.

 

Children of Ambrose Jones and Martha Craig are included because of the connections to the Williams family.

note:  Martha Perry was a WELLS, m. in 1819, Floyd Co. See TEK.

Notes: Nos. 3, 5, 6, 7, & 8 went to school during the year. Thomas and Martha have a married son and 4 married daughters in their own households in this census: Cyrus, living in HH#1168, Elizabeth, living in HH#0948, Sarah, living in HH#0028, Rachel, living in HH#0023, and Frances, living in HH#1159. Information from Geraldine Dunn indicates that there was a son, Daniel Dudley Perry who does not appear in the 1850 census. Following up via familysearch.org I discovered that he was born 14 Jan 1847 and died 11 Nov 1847.
