Generation: 4

  1. 8.  Sion Jones was born in 1825 in Pulaski County, Georgia (son of Matthew Jones and Elizabeth Wester); died on 14 Aug 1864 in Georgia; was buried in Atlanta, Fulton County, Georgia.

    Notes:

    Per the article entitled LOCKHART ADDS TO HAWTHORN HISTORY "Sion Jones (was the) son of Matthew Jones and grandson of Robert....He served in Campbell's County CSA which patrolled the coast of Florida and also served in Atlanta. Sion died in August 1864, leaving Elizabeth with seven children. She was 36 years old. She moved to Texas in 1868....The Morgans and Jones's are both Welsh." In a subsequent letter to Melinda Strong, Carolyn Powell Lockhart adds that Sion Jones had died in the Battle of Atlanta. Bonnie Jones notes that he actually died of an illness contracted during the fighting of the Civil War.

    Sion married Elizabeth Morgan on 3 Feb 1853 in Decatur County, Georgia. Elizabeth (daughter of Daniel Morgan and Mary ???) was born on 31 Dec 1830 in North Carolina; died on 13 Dec 1902 in Kirbyville, Jasper County, Texas; was buried in Magnolia Springs Cemetery, Magnolia Springs, Jasper County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 9.  Elizabeth Morgan was born on 31 Dec 1830 in North Carolina (daughter of Daniel Morgan and Mary ???); died on 13 Dec 1902 in Kirbyville, Jasper County, Texas; was buried in Magnolia Springs Cemetery, Magnolia Springs, Jasper County, Texas.

    Notes:

    Said by some to have been born in Surry County, NC, but no proof cited. This seems unlikely as the family was listed in Sampson County as of the 1830 census.

    Carolyn Lockhart wrote that after the death of Sion Jones in Georgia "Elizabeth sold her land in Decatur County (ca 1868) and came to Texas. She and [her widowed sister] Dorcas Lee had about 9 children with them. Someone met them in Galveston and it was the first time she had ever seen an iron cook stove. She instructed her kids not to mention their Indian ancestry. She herself never mentioned it even though she always wore fringes on her dresses to remind her own self of her heritage. She was 61 when she died, never remarried and never filed a pension from Sion Jones CSA record."

    In a letter from Carolyn Lockhart, she states that Elizabeth died in the home of her oldest son, Newton B. Jones. Like the Morgan's, the Jones family were also of Welsh ancestry. The Hawthorne family were neighbors in Georgia and also in Jasper County.

    Ruby Boyett showed she died in 1897, but this can not be correct as (1) she had a daughter born in 1899 (2) she can be found on the 1900 census with her husband and children and (3) her tombstone is said to be inscribed 13 Dec 1902.
