Haven't asked about my brickwall Rev James Jones Jr. for about a year; trying again. James was probably a Baptist preacher, don't know if he was a circuit rider or not. We believe he was born abt 1774 in VA or NC and lived in Orange Co NC near the Chatham county line in 1800. He married Naomi Baker and probably had a second wife whom he married before 1830. James' parents were James Jones Sr and Sarah Johnson, believed to be from VA. There is a James who fits this description in Orange Co NC, 1800 through 1840. If this is the same James, then he had 17 children between the rwo wives. However, the only one we know of is Calvin Sneed Baker Jones, 1822-1866. Calvin is on the 1850 Chatham Co NC census with wife and son, in his inlaws' home. This is my direct line and my last brickwall. Anyone?
