Married to Amanda Thomas, and father of two sons. Amanda returned to Alabama from Texas (after his death) and married (2) James Woods.
In February 1891, Jeff took seriously ill and died quickly on Wednesday the 11th of that month at age 27 in Palo Pinto County, Texas. The roads were impassable at that time and travel to Palo Pinto, Santo, or Gordon was not possible, so his brothers persuaded Mandy to allow him to be buried in "new ground." This new cemetery was carved out of small corner Zeke Beaty’s land and today is in an out-of-the-way location and set aside for area residents and their families. Mandy agreed to bury him there, beside the schoolhouse were the Beaty children went to school. (credit David Beaty, Ancestry.com)
