TO MANY OF US IN THE NEPHI JONES FAMILY, WE HAVE HAD ONLY TWO HOMES SINCE THE 1800'S

The first Jones that entered Juab County was Edward Jones, who lived below the railroad tracks where Wade Garrett now has his home. His sons Wm. and Edward, the Second was born there. For all intents and purposes, we are going to only name two homes today, mainly because we have the photos and the names of those standing around the homes.

First Wm. Jones home was in Nortonville, up Center Street. Will built two irrigation ponds that are seen there from the freeway. Those in the first photo are(left to right) Elmer Tolley; Susie Downs; Alma Jones; Bert Jones(on the pony)Edward Jones; Jack Downs, Rodger Downs, Lizzie Jones; Wm. Jones and Emma Bryan.

The Second Jones home still stands at the corner of 7th North and Main in Nephi. It was built in 1885 and remains in the Jones Family. In the front are Pearl Ockey; Elizabeth Jones; Emma Ockey; Marion Garrett; Erma Garrett; Dora Ockey and Corrine Garrett.
