Jeffersonia, youngest child, was born about 1815 after the will had been made. Jeffersonia was not named in the will and when probated in Jones County in 1816, a legal battle ensued. Jeffersonia married Francis Bacon who came from Boston and founded the town of Francisville on the Crawford side of the Agency around 1825. It flourished until railroads were built in the area in the early 1850 s and it gradually became a dead town. After the death of Francis, Jeffersonia married Dr. J. C. Harvey
