	ii.	James JONES662 was born about 1753 in Wales ?. He appeared in the census in 1810 in USA, Kentucky, Grayson Co..1030 Thomas Jones 10010 20100 1 male under ten years of age 1 male of twenty-six, and under forty-five 2 females under ten years of age 1 female of sixteen, and under twenty-six James Jones 02001 31001 3 females under ten years of age 2 males and 3 females 10 to 16, 1 male and 1 female 45 and older, ( James and wife) Philip Jones 00100 1001 1 Male 16-26 years 1 Females under 10 years 1 Female 26-45 years He died before 1850. The Jones family originated in Wales. Just before the Revolutionary War, Phillip Jones and his younger brother, James came to America and were in South Carolina. Phillip enlisted in the Continental Army early in the war and served until the close. James favored the British cause and enlisted in that army. Shortly, however, he quietly withdrew (or deserted) and entered the Continental Army where he served until the end of the war. Both Phillip and James returned to Greenwood, South Carolina and married there. Both brought their families to the Green River County, (now Edmonson county) Kentucky, about 1800. Many of the descendants of James Jones still reside in that area. (White, chapter 11) I am fairly certain that Philip Jones had a brother James who was in the Rev War who came here with them. He also had a son Philip! That means we had three Philip Jones in Edmonson Co area at the same time. (Winnie) The Philip Jones I have placed here as James son is a tenative linkage. I already have two other Philip Jones's in the Edmondson Co. 1850 census, and this third one might be James son.
