Some of the information here is slightly speculative. This John Jones is almost certainly the father of my ancestor George Jones. The marriage certificate of George Jones says that his father's name was John, and says that George was a tailor, and that John was a labourer. The '29 Church Street, Stourbridge' address in the 1861 Census matches perfectly with Harriet Ann Jones's birth information from 1863.
