JONES, William Francis


Prescott Journal Miner, Prescott, Arizona Sunday, May 23, 1920, page 3, column 4 W. F. Jones Is Called By Reaper Death claimed another old time resident of Yavapai county yesterday morning at ten minutes before six. W. F. Jones, who has been living at the Head Hotel for many months, and who has been mining various districts in the county, had been feeling poorly for several weeks. He had a case of flu some weeks ago when out at one of his camps and came into Prescott to rest up and get well. He was a little worried over his condition, but was of a bold spirit and refused to give up. He even got up out of bed just a few minutes before death came. He leaves a wife and two sons in Jasper, Wyoming, and a brother-in-law in the Hillside district. Mr. Jones made many friends and had many associates in the mining business. His death will be mourned, widely mourned. Transcriber's note: Mr. Jones is buried in an unmarked grave at the Citizens Cemetery in Prescott, Arizona
