A Daughter, name unknown, who married a Mr. Sardner
Children of Thomas and Mary Ann
John Jones, born ca 1844 in TN, buried in Abilene, Taylor Co TX
Henry Marble "Marb" Jones, born 1847 in TN, died 1915, buried in Liberty Baptist Church Cemetery, Liberty Community, Rusk Co TX He married May "Maggie" Sorters (1854-1919).

Loduska Stark "Duck" Jones was born 18 Nov 1851 in TN, died 1 Aug 1924, buried in Liberty Baptist Church Cemetery, Liberty Community, Rusk Co TX. She married Andrew Jackson "Little Andy" Crawford (1 Aug 1840-5 Jan 1910). On various records the spelling of her first name varies between Loduska and Lodusky.
Thomas Jones was born 15 Apr 1860 in Panola Co TX, died 23 March 1913, buried Liberty Baptist Church Cemetery, Liberty Community, Rusk Co TX. On 16 Dec 1880 in Panola Co TX he married Sarah Behethlyn "Heth" McNeely (1862-1933). The birth date above appears on his tombstone; however, the 1860 Census of Panola Co TX lists him as being 5 years old and having been born in TN.
Oscar Clayton "Clay" Jones was born ca 1860 in Panola Co TX (the 1860 Census shows him as being 4 months old and born in TX). He is buried in Liberty Baptist Church Cemetery, Liberty Community, Rusk Co TX. He first married Edwin Wallace and second married ? Hendricks.
NOTE: The tombstones at Sugar Hill Cemetery for Thomas C. Jones and Mary Ann Smalley Jones were erected ca 1950 and paid for by donations from various descendants. It is uncertain what marked their graves prior to that date and what is the source of their birth and death dates as shown on the tombstones. Records in the District Clerk’s Office in Panola County TX show that October 1861 Thomas Jones was allowed to give written answers in a civil suit because he had already enlisted in the C.S.A. and would soon be out of the county. No Civil War record has yet been located for him.
