General Notes: Husband - Col. Charles Jones


He was a planter of Red River, Catahoula Parish, Louisiana. He had some fifteen hundred slaves on his various plantations, and strenuously opposed the ordinance of secession until it was useless to contend against the over­whelming sentiment in the state, when he entered the Confederate service as an officer, and was shot in a dispute with Gen. Liddell, of Missis­sippi, in which also his eldest son William, as well as Gen. Liddell, lost their lives. Mr. Jones' family were all educated at Heidelberg, Germa­ny.
