Reuben and I were the last in the family to marry, so he and I had a few years at home together after the other siblings had gone. When I was a child, I wanted to be a boy, and Reuben would help me in this dream by dressing me in Floyd's clothes. Later in years we would occasionally go horseback riding or swimming together. In a sense, it was Reuben who made it possible for me to meet my Sam, and it was I who made it possible for him to meet his Alice. One summer day Sam came to my home to play tennis with Reuben. I had seen Sam twice before - once when he was in a play at Renan School and once when we both were on a picnic at Owen's Mill. But this time, after the tennis game, Sam ate supper at our home. He and Reuben went to church at Riceville that night. The next day Sam called me and asked me to go with him to church. My first date! As for how Reuben met Alice: Alice's sister Mary was my friend at UVA She invited me to visit her during our Christmas break, and Reuben took me to her home. There he met Alice, and within a year, they were married. He attended Hargrave Military Academy and UVA.

_______________
Family members relate that Richard wanted to join the armed forces to fight in World War II as had his brother James Ernest Foster. However, their father would not allow Richard to enlist because he was needed on the dairy farm so the school children would have milk to drink. This purportedly angered the young Richard.

Robert A. Jones was a resident of Halifax County, N.C. The collection includes personal accounts of Jones of Halifax County, N.C.; accounts for his ward; and accounts he kept as treasurer for the county poor wardens, 1820-1822.
Robert A. Jones (fl. 1817-1829) was a cotton planter and large landholder in Halifax County, N.C., where he served as treasurer of the Wardens of the Poor and treasurer of the Roanoke Navigation Company. Jones owned property and slaves elsewhere in North Carolina as well, including Bertie and Wake counties. Plantations he either owned or helped manage included the Grove, Occaneeche, New Hope, and Indian Woods. He appears also to have operated a paper mill outside Raleigh, N.C., and a blacksmith shop in Halifax. Between 1817 and 1826, Jones served as guardian for Willie W. Jones, who was possibly his nephew. Willie was the son of Mrs. Mary Montfort Jones, for whom Robert Jones acted as estate administrator after her death in 1825. In 1823, Jones was also appointed estate administrator for James Johnston (d. 1821), former postmaster of Halifax County, who died intestate.
