Biography

This biography was auto-generated by a GEDCOM import.[1] It's a rough draft and needs to be edited.

Seems like every other record uses a different spelling of their last name. Jeffers, Jeffries, Jefferies, Jefferys, etc., I have even seen Jefferson used.

Quote from 'History of Crawford and Clark Counties, Illinois', Edited by William Henry Perrin, copyright 1883: (see below Sources) Part II, Clark County, Chapter XXI, Parker Township, Page 150: . . . His father's name was William Jeffers, a Virginian by birth, and removed, when a young man, to Mercer County, Ky., where he married Annie Jett, and by her twelve children were born, whose names, according to their age, were Presley, Enoch, Sallie, Matilda, Hannah, Lucy, Maria, Susan, William, James, Elijah and Felicia.

Sidenote: The marriage record for William Jeffries and Annie Jett shows up in Fauquier, Virginia...

Jeffries-1660 and Jeffries-771 appear to represent the same person because: Sorry! When I created the profile it did NOT show me William Jeffries (Jeffries-771) as a possible profile. So I made mine. Went to add wife and then it DID find a match. So now there are 2 William Jeffries...
