While looking through articles on Newspapers.com, I stumbled onto this clipping mentioning the marriage of my 3rd-great-grandfather Joseph Jones and his second wife, Amanda Cooper Irwin in Maryville, Blount County, Tennessee. I previously posted a copy of
their marriage license in December 2013. They later divorced on 30 April 1897.
Another clipping shows Joseph, my 2nd-great-grandfather
Thomas Robert Jones and Robert O. Snoddy (husband of Nancy Cornelia Jones, Joseph's daughter) in Maryville, Tennessee feeding 35 hogs for the spring market in 1886. By the next year, Thomas
returned to Boone County, Indiana and married my 2nd-great-grandmother Sarah Ellen Armstrong. Robert and Nancy eventually moved to Oklahoma.

The clipping below mentions "Lum Jones' father" - Joseph Jones. In 1894, Joseph renewed the subscription to the Maryville Times for his son Marion Columbus Jones, although "Lum" had moved to Oklahoma.

Maryville is located south of Knoxville. After his divorce from Amanda Irwin, Joseph returned to Jefferson County, Tennessee and married Martha Cordelia Hart.
