Biography
Jones Plantation was owned by Thomas D. Bennehan. It was most likely located in Orange Co, NC. It is unknown when the Jones plantation originated and is only seen in Thomas Bennehan's probate inventory papers.[1] Jones Plantation was most likely sold just after Thomas Bennehan died as it is not listed in any further Cameron Family Papers.
