Keeping Up With the Joneses: Ben, Kitty, Harry and Donald

Donald Bennet Jones
More pictures of the extended Evan Jones family from the attic of John R. Jones in Hankinson, ND.   On the back of this picture is written: "Donald Bennet Jones, Born Nov. 3, 1906.  Taken May 16, 1907.  A Merry Xmas."  Donald Bennet Jones was the youngest son of Jonadab "Nad" Jones and his wife, Effie B. Hawes.  I suspect the woman in the picture is Effie, Donald's mother.  The picture was taken in Wahpeton, ND.  Donald apparently died in California and is buried next to his mother.  I have not found any spouses.


Harry Jones
Marycarol Jones (daughter of John R. Jones) identified this as her cousin, Harry Jones of Neenah, Wisconsin.  I suspect he is Harry Evan Jones, son of William L. and Julia (Jacobson) Jones, who was born in May 1898 in Neenah.  He certainly looks like a Jones.

Ben Jones and Kitty Jones
Ben and Kitty Jones were siblings of John R. Jones and the youngest two children of Evan Jones and his wife, Harriet Roberts.  Ben was born July 1879, married Ella Schultz, died  1949.  Kitty (Kathryn)  was born 1883, married James Novak, and died in 1969.
