Research Notes

Disputed Parent

Elizabeth maiden name is not Jones. The proof is based on John Jones' Old Settler Roll, which lists all known (biological) children who are alive in 1851. It lists all her half siblings, Elizabeth is not listed. She is not the biological daughter of John Jones, she is a step daughter. Removed John Jones-35556 as father.

Proof of Parentage

Mother Alafair Meek marries Daniel Hubble 26 Apr 1830 in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. She migrates with husband Daniel into Lawrence, Arkansas Territory in 1831. She resides in Izard County in 1833. Elizabeth's brother William Hubble is also born in Missouri. Added Daniel Hubble-181 as Elizabeth's father.

Disputed Last Name #2

Elizabeth is speculated to have the maiden name of Roberts, which is unsourced and unproven. This claim is disputed because mother Alafair Meek did not marry 2 men simultaneously. The duplicate profile Roberts-14704 contains research notes about these claims.

The Find a Grave Memorial (Roberts) attached to Roberts-14704 is not proven. Find a Grave Memorials set up by members not required to use sources. See Roberts-14704 for attached Find a Grave information.

Please do not add this Find a Grave information to this profile. Elizabeth's last name of Roberts is not proven. See Roberts-14707 to contribute and prove any claims.
