  According to Ann Jensen, Wiley Jones deserted the Confederate Army. When they came looking for him at his home, he hid under Nancy's hoop skirts, and the soldiers never found him. He evaded them until the war was over. He wasn't named "Wiley" for nothing. He took care of his wife and children. Ann's Mother told that story to her many times.
