When Dolly's father died in 1927, she and her sister Ada were removed from the care of their mother and sent to the Saint Vincent Orphanage in Santa Fe, NM. Dolly was later sent to a girls school in Los Lunas, NM. When she left the girls school, she went to stay with her half-sister, May Vadis Ashby Jones. She married Albert Jones, the brother of Mary's husband, Floyd Jones. ^6,21

Notes (Marriage)

---

When Gene wanted to join the Navy he had to have a birth certificate, but didn't have one as he was born at home as were the first 6 children of Albert and Dolly. They all had to go to the county seat and prove the birth before a document could be drawn up. In some cases like Vern the attendess at the birth went to the county seat right away to file the necessary papers for birth certificate. Aunt May Ashby Jones attended most of the births, lived where four counties come together: Dawson, Martin, Borden, and Howard. Most of the children were born in Aunty May's house, but the parents may have lived in one of the other counties an dso the ibrths could be reported in either place.

Had seven children, all still living in 2001.</blockquote> ⁶
