in America, Maj. Thomas Jones. Our
policy has been to lease the lands We
own for terms of years and to keep

How large an estate have you here

:. don't know the exact number Of
acres, but OWE for two miles nearly
all around it,"
This would mean that the lands d.
grounds form what in real estate par
lance would be called a parcel Of
ground" which would contain about
six square miles. Now, square mile
has just $40 acres. 1t is almost i'm
possible to buy an acre of ground in
the western part of Long Island now
adays. Practically every inch Of even
the barrenest of plains has been
snapped up by real estate companies
and is being sold of at from $3.50 to
$1,000 lot. The six square miles of
land that Mrs. Jones owns about her
home in Cold Spring Harbor. If 1t could
be bought, would be snapped up in "a
hours at the average price of $1,000 an
acre. At this figure the value of that
property alone would be nearly $4,000
900.
Antedate the Astors.
'Your family is older and has great
er possessions than the Astors-isn't
that so?" hazarded the reporter.
Mrs. Jones laughed. Were certain
ly older by hundred years or so in
this country. AS to which is the
greater / couldn't say, for | know as
little about what the Astors have as
they do about what own. l hardly
know the latter myself-accurately,
that is. But, speaking of the ancestry
of our family, there is much that is in
teresting to me- In fact l always have
been fond of and proud OF the men and
women who were our ancestors.
have several volumes of histories that
have been written about the family
but, as is usually the case when one

country, the things one wants at the
moment always are among those left
behind. That is why | haven't any OF

the history l will lend you tells a.
about him. He originated the polio
of our family to keep handing dow

The Colfax chronicle. [volume] (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1877-1981, 1908-08-22


He died in 1713 and was buried a
short distance south of the old Brick
House, on the east bank of the Massa-
pequa river The ancient burial place,
about 30 feet square, was threatened
by inroads of the tides, and in 1893 his
remains were removed. His headstone,
bearing the inscription quoted above,
is still we'll preserved. In the early
days his was known as the Pirates
Grave" and for many years after his
death it was the common belief (says
John H. Jones in his history of the
family that some of Maj. Jones
wealth was buried with him, and so
deeply rooted had this become that his
grave was opened by vandals in the
quest of relics, and the ancient bones
left strewn on the ground. His re-
mains now rest in the burying-ground
adjoining Grace church, ut South Oys-
tier Bay.
Record Of History.
About Maj. Jones being a pirate lit
tie is known. There is extant a lettei
from Lieut.. Gov. Golden to his son
written in 1859, in which he says
.sWhile Col. Fletcher was governor the
inhabitants OF New York carried on
trade to Madagascar while that island
was frequented by pirates. and many
of the pirates came. and dispersed on
Long Island and around Delaware Bay
| 1t has often been remarked that none
of the pirates made any use of theil
money to any real advantage excepting
one Jones, who settled on Long Island
and whose son made a remarkable fig
ure as speaker of the assembly while
Mr.. Clinton was governor"
1t is also known that James II
