JONES - March 10, 1915, at an early hour, Mr. David D. Jones, Gareg Wen, at the Welsh institution of Columbus, Wisconsin, after enduring months of heavy suffering from the gaion's disorder. His parents were among the early founders, having come there from Llanberis, in the summer of 1845. His father, John D. Jones, had been called an elder in the Rehoboth church before leaving Wales, and was filled the position with skill at Bethel, Columbus, from the establishment there until his death. His mother's maiden name was Jane Jones, daughter of Mr. Morris Jones, Llanrug. They had two daughters before leaving Wales. The eldest was left there, at the time, with her uncle. The youngest died in Racine on the way to Columbus. The son David was born in the Bethel area, Columbus, January 23, 1848; the first in America. There were 6 daughters and 5 sons in the family. Ten of the number were alive when their mother died, August 7, 1853; and the youngest was only ten days old. Less than three years later, the father, Ion, died. 12, 1888. As could be expected, David, the eldest of the sons, had few educational advantages after losing his parents so young. Through dedication and perseverance he overcame disadvantages, climbing to become a man of purpose among his peers. On June 30, 1876, he entered into a covenant of marriage with Miss Margaret Thomas; daughter of the well-known Owen Thomas, Ty Hen, and his wife; who was later left a grieving widow. The iiiae she has one daughter married to Mr. Ellis J. Jones, Columbus, and two sons. John D., the eldest, is in the old home with his mother; and Owen T. in family and home, near Moriah chapel. As far as it is known, Hugh J. Jones, Milwaukee, who was present on the day of the funeral with his wife and children, is the last one alive from the large family; but there are a large number of further relations for him and his wife here and elsewhere. Mr. Jones was a valuable member of Bethel church in his last years. Many advantageous elements combined to make him a member of influence. He possessed a strong sense, an enlightened understanding, a wide general knowledge. He was a man of full life, trustworthy honesty, and helpful and full kindness. He would use his leisure hours to read the "Drych," and useful publications and books, and he was a student of the truths of the Bible, until he became a man of note among his neighbors; and is an element of value in the Sunday School and other circles. he had a heavy affliction for months, which he endured in quiet patience. It undoubtedly proved to be a means to untangle his love from the earthly, and to admit it to a better country.
