This is what I know:

Margret Ann (1849 in Ohio) was married to Edmond B. Jones (1849 in Logan, Ohio) about 1870 and had 6 children
Mary A. (1872)
Linn (1880)
Minnie (1882)
Bent (1884)
Effie (1886) and
Lulu (1890)

Appreciate any help with parents and possible siblings for Margret (or Margaret) Ann married Jones.

Thank you Anton, I know the parents of Edmond B. - it was William Jones (1810) and Mary Jones (1813).
It is the parents of Edmonds wife Margret which is unknown to me.
From the censuses and Edmond bein a widower in 1910, I believe Margret died either in Peru, Nemaha, Nebraska or Jones, Union, Iowa.
If this could help in finding her maiden name and parents it would be nice.

There is a family tree on Ancestry.com belonging to dicknkat called the Caywood family tree. Tracing the family down in time it would appear that the Caywood's are descendant form Lulu Jones who married Lawrence Everett Bagg. They had a daughter Dorothy B. Bagg who was born in Boulder Colorado. She married Emmit W. Caywood of Kansas. According to the family tree they have living children as well as one who has already died. She was named Emmetta Marie Caywood born in 1938 in Saratoga Wyoming. The Family Tree here does not list any parents for Margaret Jones but I have sent an e-mail through Ancestry.com inquiring about any information concening Margaret Jones. Looking throught the information on the Family Tree it would appear that most of their information was obtained from the 1900 US Census.

The Caywood website lists Lulu Bagg having died in 1967, no location. However they list her husband as having died in 19 May 1952 in Tuscon Arizona. You can find death certificates for Arizona but only for more than 50 years ago. Thus if Lulu did die in1967 and in Arizona her death certificate would not be available until 2017. We do not know if Lulu died in Arizona. One reason I would question if Lulu died in Arizona is that the death certificate for her husband Lawrence Everett Bagg lists him as being divorced. You can look at his death certificate here I noticed that Henry Bagg signed the DA. probably his son.

Arizona

Just click on Bagg, Lawrence Everett.

You will note that it gives his mother's maiden name. Giving us some hope that if we could find the death certificate for Lulu we might be able to find her mothers maiden name.

There is a second Family Tree on Ancestry.com the Weedman tree with Lulu Alice Jones listed. This tree does not give her mother and father but it does giver her date of death as 18 August 1967. Unfortunatelyi no place is given. I have e-mailed the owner of this tree seeking more information. We will see.

Einar,

Here is the first answer back on the e-mails I sent out to the owners of the two family tree's that have Lulu Jones as a member. Unfortunatly he has nothing to add to what you already know.
