Comments: About the death of Charles (From Candice DuCoin)
I've done a lot of meandering around on the internet trying to find Charles and what I have found is that there was a Charles Jones in the 9th Calvary as a Private in Company L, Regiment 9 who was buried at Fort Bliss, El Paso, Texas (which is not too far from San Miguel, Dona Ana County, N.M.) on December 9, 1881. That information is from the "U.S. Burial Registers, Military Posts and National Cemetery". Also according to the "U.S. Registers of Death in the Regular Army, 1860-1889" there was a Charles Jones who died April 23, 1883 from chronic alcoholism and albuminuria and was buried at the National Cemetery in Fort Stanton, N.M. on April 24, 1883. He was a Private in Company D. 4th Regiment U.S. Calvary. Then it goes on to mention he was disinterred to the Santa Fe Nat'l Cemetery in N.M., grave 570, Section B. according to U.S. Veterans Gravesites 1775-2006.
This is not to say that any of these burials are Charles Randle Jones from Gonzales, Texas but the dates are around the time he went missing. His only daughter, Lula Margaret, was born Feb. 1880 and by 1883 Charles' wife, Sarah Margaret Cobb Jones, had already remarried so they must have known he wasn't coming back. The story my family has always heard is that he left to go on a cattle drive to New Mexico and never returned. But there was something mysterious about why Charles left and his not returning. My father, Paul Hubert DuCoin, was raised by his grandmother, Lula Margaret Jones Brady, who was Charles' only offspring. She was a proud religious southern Baptist woman and any time my father would ask her anything about the disappearance she responded with "oh, we don't talk about that."
