DEATH OF ABNER JONES ESQ. - The announcement of the death of Abner Jones Esq. of Lewisville, Moncton, will be heard with deep regret though it will not occasion much surprise, as it has been evident for a long time that he could not recover from the tedious and protracted illness from which he suffered. Mr. Jones was exceptionally active and energetic and at different times carried on extensive business as a shipbuilder, manufacturer of lumber and merchant. He was an influential member of the Baptist church and in all relations of life was very greatly esteemed. For three score years Mr. Jones was intimately connected with the history of Moncton, always filling an important place, and we hope hereafter to be able to supply some interesting facts in this connection. Meantime we join with all who knew the deceased in tendering sincere sympathy to the afflicted family and friends.

Abner married Anna Maria Oulton 19 Aug 1863, , Westmorland, New Brunswick, Canada. Anna (daughter of Thomas Oulton and Catherine Taylor) was born 15 Mar 1842; died 13 Jan 1880. [Group Sheet]
