      Thanks for your comments on Malinda (Mary) Jane Jones. She very well may be a phantom person. The evidence I have for her is primarily in the 1891 Biographical History of Pottawattamie County, Iowa (<http://iagenweb.org/pottawattamie/Bios1891-I.htm>).

      (Here's the relevant text: "He [Hardin Jones] was Judge of Pottawattamie County and took an active part in the political affairs of the community; was Justice of the Pace 21 years, Deputy Sheriff for several terms and held other official relations. He was a member of the regular Primitive Baptist Church and the clerk for 40 years. In his family were the following children: Malinda Jane, born May 26, 1833, and since died; John G., the subject of this sketch; Martha E., born January 11, 1836, married A.L. JONES (since deceased) and now resides in Harrison County this state; Amanda A.E., born April 29, 1837, married John A. REEL and they reside in Harrison County; Mary J. born November 16, 1838, married Joseph MOSS and they live in Rockford Twp, this county; Ruth A., born February 6, 1841, married John A. MACE and died, leaving 5 children; and Silas H. born July 26, 1847 and died in infancy."
