JONES, ALBRIDGETON, RIDLEY, KIMBELL, MIMS, HARWOOD, TIGNAL, CHISMAN
of Virginia
Can anyone provide additional references or information on the
following JONES family? I have three different correspondents/sources
giving me extensive ideas on how the JONES families in the Isle of
Wight, Co. VA are related. I have just shown the portions necessary
to get to my Mary Ridley JONES. As you can see they are all different
and I can't reconcile them. Which is correct?
