Mary Ann Thomas O'Brien was the daughter of John Thomas O'Brien and Ann T. Chambers.  She was the widow of Daniel Dickenson Jones.  John Thomas O'Brien was the son of Brien O'Brien Jr. and the grandson of Brien O'Brien Sr.

Brien O'Brien Sr. was the immigrant ancestor of my Bryan line from County Clare, Ireland.  In my line, the name changed from O'Brien to O'Bryan and finally to Bryan (with numerous variations such as Bryant, Brian, Briant, etc.).

Belvedere Ann O'Brien was the daughter of John Thomas O'Brien and Hannah Gooch Britton.  Frederick R. Moore was the son of Frederick Moore and Permelia Van Horn.  Note that Frederick R. Moore was really born in Virginia, because West Virginia did not exist at the time he was born.  But he must have been born in the part of Virginia that later became West Virginia.

Frederick R. Moore and William Francis Moore were brothers who married the sisters Belvedere Ann O'Brien and Margaret Anise O'Brien, so the respective children were double first cousins.

John Thomas O'Brien was the son of Brien O'Brien Jr. and the grandson of Brien O'Brien Sr.

Brien O'Brien Sr. was the immigrant ancestor of my Bryan line from County Clare, Ireland.  In my line, the name changed from O'Brien to O'Bryan and finally to Bryan (with numerous variations such as Bryant, Brian, Briant, etc.).
