Jesse was found in the 1850 census of Abington township of Wayne County, Indiana. He owned
$800 worth of land. Neither he or Sarah could read or write. He was next found farming in
Cloverdale township of Putnam County, Indiana in 1860-1870. He owned $2,600 worth of land
there in June 1870. On November 28, 1870 Jesse purchased 133 acres in Jackson (now Jennings)
township of Owen County. He owed back taxes on 21 acres of that land in 1873.
Jesse Jones died between 1873 and 1880, when Sarah is found in the 1880 Owen County, Indiana
census listed as a widow. She lived in Jennings township. It is likely that the family moved to Owen
County in the 1870's.
