This class consists of material directly related to Thomas Jones's personal and family life. The largest single item consists of correspondence between Thomas Jones and his wife, some of which is of political interest. There are also letters from his daughter and a little material on his son Elphin. There is, in addition, a mass of miscellaneous material relating to his career, to some turning-points in his life, to his family background and to movements with which he was associated in his early days. This material has been broadly classified in terms of his career up to 1919, when it loses coherence. Family correspondence follows, and the class is completed by a volume of miscellanea, relating to his honours, to newspaper comments upon him, to mementoes which he preserved, and to his death. The early material, which stretches back sometimes a couple of generations and includes family trees, etc., is of historical value and may be usefully collated with class U (Sir Henry Jones collection).
