OBITUARY - Plain Dealer, Wabash (IN) - March 13, 1946

Word was received Tuesday evening of the death of J. Frank Jones, about 68, Wabash resident, which occurred Tuesday in a hospital in Arcadia, Fla., where Mr. and Mrs. Jones have been spending the winter. The body is to leave there Wednesday night for Wabash and will be taken to the Hoover funeral home upon arrival.

Mr. Jones, a native of Wabash county, became an employe of the King-Hipskind Hardware store about 1914 and worked for that company as a sheet metalsmith and furnace man. He became foreman of their tin shop a few years later and continued with them for a number of years when he formed his own shop, the City Tin shop. His place of business, however was in the King-Hipskind building until several years ago when he sold the concern.

Mr. Jones was the son of Paul and Mary (Aukerman) Jones. His first wife was Mrs. Nell Christman. He was married several years ago to Mrs. Zoe Coppock Steele, who survives. The only other survivor is one brother, Harve Jones, Hood River, Ore.
