Eliza A. Jones,
(1836-1914), James W. Jones, (1846-), Lucy E. Jones, (1850-), Mary
E. Jones, (1839-1868)
During their divorce Lucy claimed Strother was running around with a
young girl that he introduced to people as his cousin.
It is probable but unlikely that this could have been
Anna Gabel whom
Strother fathered a child with.
No record of a marriage has ever been found for Anna and
Strother, or a divorce record.
So we presume for now their child was born out of wedlock.
Anna Gabel was born abt. 1832 in
