JAMES H. JONES, farmer and tobacco dealer, and a resident of Warren
County, was born April 8, 1829.  He was reared on a farm, and was only
fifteen years of age when his father died, after which the labors and
duties of farm life devolved upon him to an extent that precluded the
possibility of his obtaining a school training, but having formed a
reading habit and being of an inquiring turn of mind, he acquired a fund
of useful knowledge, which coupled with his natural abilities, has carried
him safely and successfully through life.  At the age of twenty-one his
fortune was vested in health, strength, and a will to make his way without
assistance; through his individual exertions he has arrived at comfort and
a competency.  He is the proprietor of a farm of 290 acres of good farming
land, one-half of which is in cultivation.  His farm is improved with
dwellings, barns, tobacco warehouse, and an excellent orchard of choice
fruits.  In 1880 he engaged in the leaf tobacco trade, which he still
continues in connection with farming, and handles an average of 100 tons
of tobacco yearly.  Mr. Jones was married on the 29th of May, 1851, to
Miss Elizabeth Keown, daughter of Samuel and Polly Keown, of Warren
County; to them have been born ten children, seven of whom are living: 
Samuel, James A., Malinda I., Polly A., John C., Cornelius E. and
Elizabeth A.  Mr. Jones is a Master Mason in Elijah Upton Lodge, No. 370. 
He, his wife and three daughters are members of the Methodist Church
South, and politically he is a Democrat.
