She was a native of Sidney township, near Belleville, Canada, where she was born Sept 13, 1805. At the age of five she accompanied her parents to the state of New York, and was married there to Miles Jones, Nov 26, 1822. and continued there until 1835; five children then living, two deceased. Went at that date back to Canada; there remained till the family removed, in the fall of 1860 to Elmwood, Ill. where she has resided to the time of her death.
Mrs. Jones was one of those estimable wives and mothers who are always ready and willing to perform any known duty. She took special pains to bring up her children according to her best feeling of duty to them and was thorough and industrious in all household duties. Before and after marriage she had taught school for short periods chiefly to accomodate her neighbors. This disposition to oblige was her marked charactersitic all her life. Forty years ago she joined the Baptist church, and since she came to Elmwood had been an honoured member of the Congregational church. For over 30 years she has been an invalid, and on the 1st of May, after six days futher suffering she passed away, in hope of a happy reunion with all she loved, in the heavenly home. She leaves behind her aged husband, 11 years her senior, and five children -- Mrs. J. A. Vandervoort, Mrs Wm. Douglas, W. W. Jones, D. B. Jones and Mrs. Jas. Venn.
Funeral services were conducted at Mr Venn's, Wednesday afternoon, May 2d, by Rev. L. R. Royce. and remains interred in Elmwood Cemetery. |
