Jones VS. Rhoton

September 28, 2006 by Sheila 4 Comments

Scott Co. Chancery Court Case

On file at the VA. State Library

1843-006

Jones vs. Rhoton

Paschal Jones vs. Erasmus D. Rhoton of Lexington Ky.

“The Def. being on a visit to his relations in Scott Co. VA, and being sick and without funds and necessaries, wrote to his father Benjamin Rhoton of Lexington for a supply.”…….

(The father, Benjamin had relatives in Scott County to get him the money for which he said he would be responsible for.)

Orator (Paschal Jones) is the brother in law of Benjamin W. Rhoton, and Erasmus d. Rhoton got a blanket and saddle from Grimes Neil, and other necessities, but not until the orator gave security of $27.75 on Aug 29th 1836.

Erasmus Rhoton died abt Christmas of 1839 and Paschal Jones is asking that Elias, Ezekiel, and Elisha Rhoton should pay Benjamin W. Rhoton $85.00.

( Are Elias, Ezekiel and Elisha the son’s of Erasmus or his brothers, and that is why Paschal is asking for them to pay Benj. Back???)

    Thank You Annette,
    So Erasmus was not only the nephew of Paschal Jones but also to Elias, Ezekiel and Elisha.
    Do you know what the name of the sister who married Paschal Jones was?
    My 3x great grandmother Rebecca Lane who married James Allen was the daughter of Wilkerson Lane and Malinda Rhoton. I need to work more on my Rhoton line.

    2. Elias P Rhoton b. abt 1795 in Pennsylvania died 1845
    3. Hester Ann Rhoton
    4. Benjamin W. Rhoton
    5. John F. Rhoton
    6 Josiah Rhoton
    7. Isaac J Rhoton born 1824

    These are the children of Jacob Rhoton and Elizabeth, but his wife was not Elizabeth Burton. Elizabeth Burton was married to another much younger Jacob Rhoton.
