Excerpt from "A Walk in a Country Churchyard - Autumn 1880" by Luke Smith Mote

Near the middle of the older ground, rather southwesterly, lie the remains of three of the older Mote brothers, identity of graves lost by negligence of their families...

Jonathan died of gastric disease in spring of 1839 -- aged eighty-one years -- was of a different temperament, more stout built, and corpulent in his older years, and at one time in life kept for sale alcoholic liquors and indulged in their use. He raised a large family, mostly boys, who scattered off in the world. He built the first brick house on the river this side [of] Dayton, in 1801, which is still standing. He had a second wife, which lived no great while; his old farm is occupied now by some [of] the Vore family one half mile southwest of Milton."

Jonathan married Ann. She was the mother his children. His second wife was Susanna Hollingsworth.
