He was the son of Charles Bond and Mary Parks Bond.
Jesse married Mary Walton. Mary was the sister of Mildred Walton (m. John Crain) & George Walton was their adopted brother (signed the Declaration of Independence for the State of Georgia). Note: Mildred Walton & John Crain had a daughter named Susannah, that married Jesse's son, Jesse Walton Bond.
Jesse Bond & Mary Walton's children are:
William Thomas Bond m- Martha Walker
Whitfield W. Bond m. Eleanor Payne
John Bond
Mary Lucy Bond

Nathan(iel) Bond
Shortly after the Revolutionary War, Jesse & his brother Nathaniel, with families, were in frontier Georgia, Greene & Elbert Counties, led there by Jesse's wife's 1st cousin, and his very close friend, Maj. Jesse Walton, the founder of Jonesborough, TN. Like many others, when new land opened up in Kentucky via treaty, they began to relocate. Nathaniel & his family stayed in Elbert County, GA, and Jesse Walton was in Toccoa, GA. thus creating a continuing tie to that area and the travel corridors in between. Perhaps this is why Jesse's son, William Thomas Bond's home, on the upper Collins River of what is now Grundy County, TN, sat nearly on top of the old Chickamauga Path, that led from Nickajack town, to where Beersheba Springs is now, along the Collins River and crossing Cumberland Mtn at Hill's Creek, on to Rock Island, TN and what became the Kentucky Road. Jesse surely followed this path many times, and his son William Thomas as well.
Note: Although the estates of both Bond brothers, John & Jesse Bond were settled in Kentucky, neither were killed in Kentucky. John was killed (scalped) by Cherokee at the headwaters of the Little Tennessee River near the Overhill Cherokee town named Cowee (Macon County, N.C.) while with Col. John Sevier on his Overhill Cherokee town raids, while Jesse was likewise killed just two years later at the Lower Cherokee town of Nickajack (family lore says he was trading with the Cherokee there when things went amiss). It would be another 12 years before the violence originating from Nickajack village was subdued.
There are many unknowns about Jesse, many unproven thoughts and theories, so anyone with documents to support a theory are encouraged to submit those to the Memorial or send them in as an EDIT for review. They are all more than welcome.
