My maternal grandfather was John Jacob JONES Sr, a descendent of Hiram Addison JONES (1795-1878) and Sarah TAYLOR. The origins of the family are still unknown. By the 1860's the family was located in Boone County, Indiana, moving to Attica in Fountain County, Indiana by the 1890's.
Below are listed resources used to research the Jones family. If you
