JONES, William Adolphus (1885-1968)

Burial on Jan 18 1968 of William Adolphus Jones, aged 82.

“Conger”, for many years our village road-keeper, was a much beloved and interesting old character, whom we shall sadly miss.  He used to figure frequently in the amusing tales of the late Charles Gardiner.  In recent years he had resided at Avonside Hospital, but used to visit his friends in Badsey.  It was only in the last few weeks that he had been confined to bed.
