Bio from Cutler's History of Woodson County, KS published 1883:
HON. I. S. JONES, Probate Judge of Woodson County, came to Kansas in March, 1870. Located at Neosho Falls; taught the Neosho Falls public school, assisted by his daughter. In 1873 he was elected Judge of the Probate Court; has been re-elected time after time, and has held the office ever since; and during eight years of this time served in the double capacity of Probate Judge and Register of Deeds, being elected to both offices. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, April 20, 1823, son of William T. and Rachel Jones. He was educated in Wabash College, and taught several years in his native State. In 1852, he was elected County Auditor of Warren County, Ind., and served eight consecutive years in that capacity. For the next six years, he was engaged in the mercantile business, and then again in teaching until 1870, when he came to Kansas. He was married in Williamsport, Warren County, Ind., April 18, 1850, to Lucinda J. Etnire, daughter of Jacob and Mary Etnire. By this union he has two children--Mary O., wife of W. H. Slavens, and Maud, wife of T. A. Schuler. Mr. Jones is a worthy member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and of the I. O. O. F. The universal esteem in which he is held by the people of Woodson County is indicated by the time which he has served in the responsible office which he has now held nearly ten years.
