JONES Melissa Archibald, 8855 Lewis Ave. Temperance, MI 48182The following represents names taken from my great-great-grandfather's personal diary and notebook where he kept records of his business and entered other items of interest. I have attempted to transcribe exactly what was written but some of the writing was difficult to read and therefore may have errors. Enos M. Jones resided in the Lima [Allen Co.] and Hamler, Deshler [Henry Co.] areas of Ohio in 1874, when it appears this diary was kept. Used with the permission of Melissa Archibald and The Ohio Genealogical Society in the format in which it appeared in The Report Vol. 41, No.4. A.
