LEVI BENTON JONES & MARY ELIZABETH GRIFFITH
on Their Wedding Day - ca September 1876.

Levi was the son of Levi Bauze Aday Jones and Nancy Coleman (possibly Holman). Mary was the daughter of Millie Ann Oller and Christopher Columbus Griffith. Christopher died in the Civil War in 1862. Millie married Levi Benton's uncle, Thomas Benton Jones.
Levi Benton Jones and Mary Elizabeth Griffith were the parents of ten children:
Viola Ann Jones, who married Andrew Jackson Yandell
Edgar Royal Jones, who married Myrtle Pullen Jones
Ulyssess Franklin "Doke" Jones
Edison Smith Jones
Attie Lee Jones
Verna Arta Jones, who married Luther Aikman
Vida Arabella Jones, who married Lewis Woodruff
Jay Gould Jones
Velma Amy Jones, who married Ben Tade
Vera Ada Jones, who married Claire Dobson

To my knowledge, Doke, Edison, Attie, and Jay never married. Edgar & Myrtle were my grandma's parents - she was Dollie Jones Hale.
