We don't know who Mary Jones married, but she was born in April 1883, near
Troutdale in Multnomah County to James Austin Jones & Ella/Elizabeth Buoy
Jones. Mary died three days after the birth of her baby, most likely in the
Portland area. Does anyone have a suggestion on how can we find Mary's marriage
and death date? This name is a tough one to research because it's so common.
Do any of you listers have access to a marriage index with this Mary Jones
in it? It's a puzzle!
Mary's father, James Austin Jones was born in 1859 near Troutdale and died
in 1959. James "Aus" married Ella Buoy 3 July 1882 in Creswell, Lane County.
We have a newspaper clipping of James with his surviving children,
celebrating his 100th birthday in Oregon's 100th year as a state. Mary Jones had died
before 1959.
James "Aus" & Ella Jones' other children were: Edgar L. & Johanna Jones;
William B. & Jennie Jones; Nina Jones (born Nov. 1889 & died at age 12 of a
hemorage); Maude Myrtle & Jack Goschie; George A. & Mildred Jones; Nellie & Lee
Cundiff; Laura & Ralph Gholson; Norma & Ralph Thiem; Ocea Hosford (she
married more than once); Ruby Jones (she died about 18 of measles) and Betty &
William Pearson.
Some of the Jones are buried near some Buoy's at the Douglas Cemetery near
Troutdale. Maude & Jack Goschie are buried in Gresham. My sister-in-law is
descended from Maude & Jack Goschie and she'd really like to know more about
Mary Jones. Joanne would love to get in contact with any James Austin &
Ella Jones family.
