Stafford Jones
« on: Tuesday 13 February 18 03:33 GMT (UK) »
He was born around 1770 in Virginia. He married Winifred Taliaferro Thornton. He died after 1830 in Scott County, Kentucky. He had three known sons, Thornton 1795, Toliver 1802, and Silas 1806. I've been searching for awhile, hopefully someone else can help.
