• The photo collection of Dr. Horace Jones & Dr. Thomas Jones (in memory of Paul & Anne Wright). Scanned historic prints and negatives from the Jones Family, Anderson, Indiana. Pictures are from late 1800s to mid-1930s. Grandfather Dr. Horace Jones lived at 66 West 10th Street (known as 138 W 10th after 1900). His son Dr. Thomas M. Jones lived at 310 West 10th Street with his son Horace E. Jones (who later also became a doctor). The home at 310 West 12th Street remained with the Jones family from about 1910 until 1972. Anne Wright, who worked for Dr. Horace Jones, along with her husband Paul, purchased the home from the Jones' estate. Many Jones family treasures were left and it is with this good fortune that these pictures can be shared today. Additional information in each picture.
• Jeanne Jones personal collections
• Joyce Fischer personal collections
• Additional pictures come from various Anderson City directories available in the Indiana Room at the Anderson Public Library.
• Additional photos courtesy of Ward Awning who did a wonderful job of documenting the many properties they have provided awnings to over the years.
