Biography

Jesse was born in 1790. He passed away in 1863.

He married Sarah Perkins.[1]

1856 Orange County, Wars . Orange (once part of Madiason Co) had the largest aggregate of "free blacks" in the state, numbering about 100. The nucleus of the Mulatto colony included Aaron, Abner, William, Jesse, and Tapler Ashworth and their children; Hiram Bunch, Gibson Perkins, and Elijah Thomas, all of whom were either brothers, in-laws, or were otherwise closely related Redbone families. The wives of some of them were white, whereas a few white men in the county had Mulatto wives (mixed marriage was illegal, although seldom enforced). Most of them having arrived in Texas by 1834, a few of them held Mexican land grants. - http://slideplayer.com/slide/6120585/
