Brief History:
The Piper and Jones Families are linked through the marriage of Rachel K. Piper to Elias Jones on January 3, 1843. The Piper and Prickett (Mother's maiden name) families were in Ohio in the 1820's near Springfield in Clark County where Rachel Piper was born in 1825. After her father's death in 1835 the mother, Jane (Prickett) Piper, will move her family to Noble County Indiana in 1841. Her brother, John J. Piper will study medicine under Dr. Elias Jones, go to California where he marries, and eventually move to Spokane Washington in 1879 homesteading in Peone Prairie.
