Wiley Randolph Jones

Is a younger brother of L. D. Jones.  



The mother of this family of boys was Miss Caroline McCarty.  She was married to Mr. Jones in

1853.  She still lives and is a strong, active woman.  Her husband died Feb. 14, 1905.  W

Wiley Randolph was born Nov. 4, 1875.  He was reared in the parish and educated her schools

and then attended the State Normal, and then took a course in law.  Two diplomas grace his

conscious possession and he is one of the well equipped and strong professional young men of

this section.  He began the practice of law in 1902 and has made uninterrupted progress all the

while since then.  He is a Baptist and is also a Mason and Knight of Pythias, even tempered and

calculating.  No young man here has a better foundation laid for large success.  



He thinks this country is destined to a great future and is willing to go his full length in investment

here.  



His motto:  "The Golden Rule."
