Warren Co., Ohio, April 23, 1858. His father, Thomas
Jones, was born in Virginia Sept. 4, 1815, and on the 11 th of March,
1844, married Martha Sears, who died Nov. 20, 1878. They
were the parents of eleven children, of whom Thomas,
our subject, who was the youngest, was raised on the farm with his father
until he married and commenced life for himself. He attended the district
schools of his township and devoted his spare time to the work on the
firm. On Feb. 9, 1879, he married Miss Lucy M. Gibbs,
a daughter of Henry and Lucy (Clark) Gibbs, natives of
England, who |
