I believe that the Jones family came from the Birdsville Plantation in Jenkins County, Georgia. Before 1905, it was part of Burke County.

I believe the Clarks descended from Raymond Clark -> Willie -> Willie M. Raymond Clark is listed on the 1850 census by name, living with a white family by the name of Chandler in Burke County, GA. They live next door to a slave holder named Clark. Raymond Clark is listed a Mulatto.

I haven't got much on the Whites yet.
