Hello,
I just sent a message to you and I am not sure if you received the message as it said "sorry." when I sent it.
My name is Maureen (Pierce) Thompson and I am hoping you can help me. I noticed in your MOTYER & BENJAMIN Family Tree Genealogy you had a person by the name of John Jones who died 19 February 1801 and married Edith "Edy" Tynes.
I am in search of any information you have on the father of John Jones. who married Edith Tynes. I am related to John Jones through his brother Thomas Jones (1753-1796) who married Gershoma Newman, who was born aft. 1773.
The information I have is the Descendants of John Jones, who married Ann bef. 1753 She died Aft. 1796 in Paget.
John and Ann had 6 children:
John Jones d, 19 Feb 1801 and married Edith "Edy" Tynes
Thomas Jones (1753-1796) who married Gershoma Newman
William - Daniel - Ann - George, all born in Paget
My Jones Family Ancestry is:
John Jones d. September 16, 1900
Thomas Jones (1753-1796) - my 3rd great grandfather
George Jones (1796-1873)
George Albert Jones (1849-1921) he owned The Cherries South Shore Road Paget
Harley Leonard Jones (1883-1953) he owned Cherry Cottage, Berry Hill Road Paget
Hattie Pearl Jones (1913-1988) my mom owned Cherry Cottage Berry Hill Road Paget
Maureen Evelyn (Pierce) Thompson - me.
All I know on the Jones family is that the Jones family from Wales settled in the Paget Tribe in Bermuda during the 1760's. I do not have the first names of the Jones family who immigrated from Wales (I expect they went to England and then Bermuda). This is where I am at standstill for I have no further information of John Jones, died September 16, 1800 and buried in Paget. I do no know where he was buried in Paget or what properties he owned in Bermuda as noted in his Will that I have and mentioned his wife Ann and sons John, Thomas and William as Executors.
Are you able to help me with any information you may have on the father of John Jones who died 19 February 1801. I would appreciate it.
Thank you.
Merry Christmas.

Hi John,
Good to hear from you. In answer to your question: Are these 2 definitely 2 different people? The answer is YES they are two different people.
My 1st great grandfather was George Albert Jones, born July 26, 1849 and died June 21, 1921 at The Cherries, Paget, Bermuda. George Albert married CharlotteElizabeth Nugent July 27, 1871 in Southampton, Bermuda daughter of Thomas Nugent and Margaret Hill. Charlotte was born February 12, 1853 in St. George Bermuda and died May 13, 1927 at The Cherries, Paget Bermuda.
George Albert and Charlotte had 12 children, one being my grandfather Harley Leonard Jones, born November 13, 1883 and died July 23, 1953 at Cherry Cottage, Paget. Harley Leonard married Elizabeth Ella Pitt Gibbons on May 18, 1904 in Sandys, Bermuda daughter of Robert Gibbons and Francis Vallis. Ella was born February 22, 1883 in Sandys Bermuda and died May 21, 1953 in Paget, Bermuda. Both buried at the Old Devonshire Church Cemetery, Middle Road, Devonshire.
Harley Leonard and Ella Pitt had 11 children, one being my mother Hattie Pearl Jones, born January 25, 1913 in Winnipeg, Manitoba and died January 1, 1988 in Paget Bermuda, buried at Calvary Cemetery. Hattie Pearl married Harold Francis Pierce on October 4, 1940 at St. Theresa's Church, Pembroke, Bermuda. Harold Francis was born August 26, 1909 in New Bedford, Massachusetts and died November 14, 1972 in Paget Bermuda, buried at Calvary Cemetery, Bermuda.
Hattie and Harold had 2 children, one being me, Maureen Evelyn Pierce. My brother is Harley Glen Francis Pierce.
How did George Dickinson Jones,(1090) get to be in - already in my family file?
Talk later

Hi John
Thank you for this information.
As I was reading just a few notes:
Fourth Generation (Great Grandparents)
15. Francis Vallis (6183) (6183)
Should read Frances instead of Francis.
Her full name is Frances Elizabeth Martha Augusta Vallis
*******
Fifth Generation (2nd Great Grandparents)
24, George Jones (6172) (6172)
George Jones married someone :
George Jones married Elizabeth WOODGATE
Elizabeth Woodgate d. 1877 in Bermuda. They were married 05 Sep 1841. They had 7 children.
19th Century Church Register of Bermuda
Paget Bride Marriages (pg 788)

WOODGATE Elizabeth Sp Pg Jones George Ba Pg 1840 Sep 05 (Md1) (Cr2)
************************
Sixth Generation (3rd Great Grandparents)
48. ….Ann TOPPING (3156) was born in 1753 in Paget. If she was born in 1753 how could she be married in1746?And considering son Thomas Jones was born 1753 ...
We need confirmation of the birth of Ann TOPPING.
The above needs confirmation - as to a record of when Ann Topping was born and a recored of Ann Jones in Moore Register Bermuda marrying John Jones on Nov 21, 1747. I see you have made note of questions on Ann Topping, which is good.
For your information. Everything else looks good.
Maureen
