Eleanor (Ellenor) Jones,
Proof that Eleanor is the daughter is Jacob and Elizabeth is based on: (1) A published article in the Greenfield Republican on May 31, 1917 showing she is the heir of Jacob Jones along with brother Francis and other family members. This article also lists many of Eleanor's children. See documents section. (2) I currently have 34 DNA matches to matches with shared Bell ancestry. Those matches also connect to other Hawk matches. See my DNA section below for more details and the highlighed matches on this page. Eleanor married David Hawk on Feb 10, 1842 in Hancock, IN. I descend from their son Nathaniel Henry Hawk who married Anna Irene Jones. See the Hawk surname page for their children and the continuation of this line. |

| Important Jones Documents |

On May 31, 1917 in the "Greenfield Republican" newspaper in Hancock,
Indiana, a long notice was published regarding a Hancock Circuit Court case
by Mary Ann Cleary/Edward P. Cleary vs. Jacob Jones, et al. regarding a
complaint to "Quiet Title to Real Estate" of which Jacob and his
heirs/descendants are listed in detail. This document is the only
known physical document I have found outside of DNA that can be used to help
determine the children of Jacob and Elizabeth. In addition, I have put together an analysis document to help identify the names listed in their heirs notice. They are listed in the order they appear in the notice. It is a work in progress. Newspapers.com Article JPG version |
