Our Apjones' Ancestors came to America from Wales, sometime in the 1700's. After coming to America, they changed their surname by dropping the "Ap". The now Jones', possibly landed in Virginia and headed to North Carolina. After a short time, they moved westward, southward, southwest, and northwest. Martin is listed on the 1780 Surry Co., N.C. Census. Neighbors living next door on this Census are Timothy Riggs from New Jersey who was Justice of the Peace, and his son Clisby Riggs who ran a still in Jefferson Co., Tennessee who sold his liquer to Davy Crocketts father. Timothy Riggs also had sons Eziah, Jesse and a Dr. Clisby Riggs. Our family believes there is a definite connection to this line also.
