(This paragraph from John Jones, son of Lloyd Jones) Both James Haywood Jones and Margaret"Fannie" Jones never admitted her 1st husband and second were related. Truth is they were related; James H. Jones, Father John G. Jones was a son of Samuel Jones whose brother Joseph was the father of Clayborn W. Jones whose son was Gillis Jones. Thus they are second cousins...the children from the two marriages would not only be half brother and sisters but third cousins as well!



James H. Jones and Fanny had 9 children:


Left to Right Back Row: Fannie, Charlie (last of Gillas children)
James Haywood Jones on back right. The other five children are children of Fannie and James together: Lloyd, Hazel, Nora Bessie, Birchell Stephen and Reid Arnold.
