#407, b. circa 1725/26, d. between 1769 and 1797
     Margaret Jones was born circa 1725/26 Carnarvonshire, Wales. Margaret and Andrew Frazier were married before 1746 Was Margaret married to Andrew Frazier while she was in adultery and having children with John Bruce? Andrew Frazier did not give a deposition.
Or, is this a son of hers? There evidence that she was Margaret Frazier, but little evidence that she was married to a Frazier. Tradition has her as "Margaret Jones," without evidence.
