? not sure about the dates as William JONES must have been born c1720+ to have married and had children. The date given was - Mary ADEAN (Widow) married William JONES (Widower) - 19 February 1738 - so assume was William her step-son….

? Is William JONES who married Mary ADEANE in 1839, William JONES (Jnr) and not (Snr)

as William JONES of Awre Will 1744 just mention his son William and wife Mary
