About the Book
The Five Little Joneses tells the story of five siblings who grew up in Attica, Indiana, during the first half of the 1900s. Born to John Jacob Jones Sr. and Erma Ruth McCord Jones, they came of age in a close-knit family shaped by love, hardship, humor, and faith.

Spanning two world wars, we follow the children into adulthood as life carries them across the United States, and, in time, back home again to Indiana. This richly illustrated volume also traces the family’s deep colonial roots and their westward journey to the Hoosier frontier.

The memories gathered in these pages do more than record the past — they preserve the essence of the Five Little Joneses, revealing how their lives continue to shape the generations who follow.

The book is available in three formats - hardcover, softcover, and softcover economy print.

Deborah Catherine (Marvel) Wesley is the granddaughter of John Jacob Jones Sr. and Erma Ruth (McCord) Jones. A passionate family historian, Deborah finds fascination in the dichotomy of her ancestry. While she has deep colonial roots and is a proud eighth-generation Hoosier, she is also the great-granddaughter of German immigrants. A loving wife, devoted mother of three, and delighted Nana, she continues to live in her childhood home in Carmel, Indiana. Bitten by the genealogy bug in 1980 while filling out a family tree in her Bible, Debbie has spent the past 45 years uncovering the stories behind the names. With a background in information technology, she uses digital tools to bring family history to life—preserve and share family history under her HoosierRoots brand — creating and sharing videos, trading cards, and other unique mementos to honor the memories of her family, past and present.
