He married Mary Catherine Rebecca Hodges in Coffee County, TN on 21 April 1858. They had ten children.

Widow's Pension Application filed by Catherine Hodges Bynumon (Bynum) 03 Jul 1907. It shows Jesse Bynum enlisted in Hillsboro, TN in 1862 , 44th TN Regiment for 1 year. He was not with his unit at surrender because, he had become ill and was on furlough at home and was cut off by the Yankees and could not get back to his unit. A letter from A T Bell for John W. Hargis stated Jesse was a good soldier, but was sick and not in good health, but he did not desert. Hargis would have know if that happened. Jesse was sick until the end of the War. Department of Cumberland shows the soldier of that name was captured 03 Jul 1863 at Tullahoma, Tennessee and he released 09 Jul 1863 on taking the oath.

J. B. Bynum Sr, age 71 years, died Sunday night after a few days of illness.
He was born in Cannon County and moved here about the year 1884, where he has followed the occupation of miner until 5 or 6 years ago having to give up this on account of his health.
