- Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, November 7, 1894 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Died, in this village on Monday, November 5, 1894, Lucius Jones, one of the oldest business men in this place. Mr. Jones was born in Vernon, Oneida county, March 7, 1826, and moved from there to what is known as the Clement Wallace farm, south of this village, where he resided for a short time then moved to Pulaski about 1854, and entered into the drug business which he continued for eleven years. Then as a member of the firm of Jones & Meacham, he was in a dry goods store for one year. Following that came Jones & Dodge for six years; then Jones & Lane for five years. After the great fire of '81 which burned Jones & Lane's place of business, Mr. Jones was out of trade for about a year and a half, when he again entered the dry goods and shortly after formed a partnership with his son-in-law, which has been successfully continued until the present time. Mr. Jones suffered a paralytic shock on June 22nd and has been confined to his bed ever since and for the past two weeks has been gradually failing until the end came. Mr. Jones had lived on Broad street for about 28 years. A loving wife and two daughters, Adelle Jones and Mrs. Addie E. Richards survive him. The funeral will take place Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the house.
