Years ago we heard stories of a Chesley JONES, perhaps a sibling or maybe a cousin, who was blind and played the fiddle.

We are also trying to figure out who "Uncle Argus JONES" and "Aunt Lula JONES" were. They lived at Clarksville, OK, by where the peach orchards are now located. Our uncle told stories about the "old home place" where two or three of the younger married couples lived in the '20's and 30's, before some of the family left to go to California. He said there is a granary somewhere on the property where they all wrote their names in pencil before they left for California and years later (sometime in the 1990's) he returned and the names were still there. Argus could possibly be a sibling of Rich JONES, or perhaps a nephew.
