Richard Jones was born to Dick and Mary (Douge) Jones at Union, NE on 
October 1, 1895. The family moved to a farm south of Magnet in 1902 where 
his father managed the grain elevator. Richard graduated from Magnet High 
School and after returning from the war in 1919 he married Alice Cable at 
Sioux City, Iowa. Three children were born to this union, Jack in 1920, 
Lorna in 1921 and Nellie Maree in 1926.

Richard and Alice lived at McLean, Magnet and Emporia, Kansas. After Alice

it burned down in 1967. At this time he moved to Washington to be near his 
daughter, he passed away on June 30, 1972 and is buried beside his wife at 
the Magnet Cemetery.
