In Tree Talks (West LA FHC 974.7 B2y) v.14 pg.7 there's a small history of Chenango County with blurbs on village of Coventry. Among the first settlers were a Simon Jones in 1785 and a Benjamin Jones in 1788. Benjamin Jones kept the first inn.

At the Pine Hill Rd cemetery where son Adelbert is buried there are some other Jones who may or may not connect in. These are the stones.

Frank H Jones 1864-1922 (possible parents Christopher & Augusta in 1880 census w/son Frank age 16).
Roxcy H Jones 1840-1920.
Edwin L Jones.
George H Jones died Oct 28, 1852 age 40 years & 7 mo.

In 1991 Steve Jones talked to a local Jones man who gave the following connections of above.
The man was Frank Henry Jones 77 Sydney Center RD 1 Box 200AA Masonville NY 13839.
His parents are Harvey (14 Jun 1879-15 Feb 1957) & Elsie Mae (Burnside) above who were married Jan 1909.
Harvey's father was Frank H Jones (Supposition: Frank of 1864-1922 was probably brother of Harvey and they were sons of another Frank).
There is also a George, brother to Harvey who served in WWI.
No idea if any of these tie in but it's worth looking into.
