If William is the 2nd son then is this the death of his brother?

16087/1916 JONES JOHN - HENRY O - GRACE - NEWTOWN

if so we then have Grace.

Rookwood
Methodist 2 0000426 JONES JOHN 13 Dec 1916

That Methodist burial would fit with William's Wesleyan marriage.

No age at death for John unless a more complete burial record exists.


I might not have the right burial for Henry, although Goulburn fits.

May have answered me own question...

NSW Arrival Index
JONES Henry 36 John Fielden 1853 Moreton Bay and family Reels 2136, 2465

That would fit with an 1854 death aged 37..

I have found a tree but it has this death for William which is clearly wrong from the details on the headstone.

3668/1869 JONES WILLIAM AGE ABOUT 30 YEARS DIED GOULBURN GOULBURN

Father Henry Owen listed with no birth, marriage or death. No mother listed. No brother John listed. Only one of three children listed.
