General Notes: Husband - John Jones


He fought through four years of the Civil war. He learned the art of photography, known in those days as daguerreotypy, from his brother, Thomas, who had learned it in London. He was a born horticulturist, doing his best work in his sister's garden at Manorville, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, which a visiting Pittsburgher called "Allah's Garden of Roses," so beautiful and luxuriant were they under his care and labor.
