Thomas Jones aka Thomas English Jones was my 3rd great-grandfather.  He was born in England.  When he was about 25 he had to have his leg amputated above the knee.  A couple of years later his wife died.  He then joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and emigrated to the United States.  He lived in Nauvoo, Illinois, United States until the Saints moved west to Utah.  He traveled across the plains with the Heber C. Kimball company.  He is an example to me of enduring well to the end.

This record is from a Family Book.  Family Books are a collection of families from the town.  This one happens to be from Tuttlingen, Wuerttemberg, Germany.

The following images come from church record books from Tuttlingen, Wuertttemberg, Germany.  What's nice about these particular records is that it covers a time period when there aren't other records filmed that have the birth, marriage, or death records available.  They are from a record called a "Seelenregister" which is basically a church membership record.  

 This particular image led me to other records that enabled me to extend this particular line.  It was an exciting find for me.
