Jonas Combs
2 m (<5); 2 m (5<10); 1 m (10<15); 1 m(30<40)
1 f (<5); 1 f (30<40)
Note: This Jonas Combs (b c1800-1805) believed to be the same as who married Peggy KOONS in Lawrence Co, OH. If so, he obtained land in Lawrence on July 10, 1834. The ancestry of Jonas isn't determined but he appears to have been born in what is now West Virginia (see 1880 census records for both Jonas and his sons). In 1850 and 1870 Jonas states he was born in Virginia but is more definite in 1880 by stating WVA. In 1860, he states Ky. which may indicate some time in Ky. or some connections. Jonas Combs is a name found in Hampshire Co. (now WVA). Also helpful may be the clue that he states in 1880 that his father was born in New Jersey and his mother was born in Ireland.
