JONES, Richard Bright ^{1 2}

  General Notes:

"Combination Atlas Map of Grant Co, IN" by Kingman Bros. 1877, in an article written about Enoch P. Jones, M.D., of Marion, Grant Co, IN states this about his ancestor, "Richard Bright Jones emigrated from Wales to America, settling in Opacon, VA." (possibly also known as Opeccin or Opecking, near Cape Fear) "...he married Miriam, daugher of Aaron Coppock."

Richard married Miriam COPPOCK, daughter of Aaron COPPOCK and Miriam SHORT, on Aug 12, 1727 in Nottingham M.M., Chester, PA, USA. (Miriam COPPOCK was born about 1706 in Aston, , PA ⁴ and died after 1743 in , Orange, New York, USA.)

  Marriage Notes:

This event was also recorded in the New Garden MM, PA as occuring in Nottingham. Some wrote it down as the same date in 1723.
