Hugh Colton Jones

Hugh Colton Jones was born in Lehi, Maricopa Co. Arizona on 3 Oct 1900 (?). He was baptized by D.P. Jones. He was 5'10" weighed 150 and hi chest size was 38. He had blue eyes and brown hair. He was specially interested in Boy Scout work. Hugh died of lung trouble in Mesa, Arizona on 20 May 1918. D. Dudley Jones did Hugh's endowments by proxy at the Salt Lake Temple on 4 Apr 1919.

This was written about Hugh:

"Hugh was the baby but a very manly little fellow.

He was a leader among boys of his age and many of his older friends considered his advice above the advice generally received from young men.

He was exemplary in his habits and very studious in his school work and in his work in the church. He was a scout leader and the boys over whom he was, loved him for his kindness and big heart. He would have made a mark in the world if he hadn't been cut off in his youth."
