Jones Page

This is what I know about my Jones line. My Great Grandfather's Name is Francis Marion Jones, pictured above with family (picture date between 1906-1908). He was born 08/31/1863 somewhere in Ohio. (Research indicates Guernsey County) He died 04/01/1932 in Denmark, Arkansas (Jackson County) I sent off for death certificate but one was not filed. His Wife is Margaret Elizabeth Blount born 1878 in Independence County Arkansas. His Father is Benjamin Jones born sometime from 1830 to 1840 in Ohio. His Mother is Luiza* born in Ohio as well. *(spelled Luiza on the 1880 Arkansas census, probally spelled Louisa) I found a Benjamin Jones married to Louisa Bay in Noble County in 1859 on Family Tree Maker's Marriage Index of Ohio. However I could not find them on the 1860 Census of Noble County Ohio. They could be in the Guernsey County because Noble was once part of it.
