Robert Edward Lee Jones, a son of the Hon. Jethro Jones and Celia Watson, was struck by a car on April 1 on the Chattahoochee River bridge while the bridge abutment was burning. He died as a result of his injuries on April 6. The driver of the vehicle, William E. Lee, was held in jail in Newnan charged with murder.
When electricity came to Whitesburg, the Jones brothers installed an electric corn mill. Sadly, the mill was destroyed by fire in 1926.
The Jones family all worked as cotton brokers. They each built a fine home in Whitesburg and are buried in the Whitesburg Cemetery.
Robert was a brother-in-law of Messrs. Claude and Grady Ridley.
