Church in Wales priest (1870–1941)

This British surname is barrelled, being made up of multiple names. It should be written as Church Jones, not Jones.

Henry James Church Jones (30 August 1870 – 18 January 1941) was a Church in Wales priest, most notably Archdeacon of Brecon from 1923 until 1939.

Church Jones was born at Aberporth and educated at Christ College, Brecon and St John's College, Oxford. He was ordained deacon in 1893, and priest in 1894. After a curacy in Brecon he was Vicar of Battle from 1904 to 1919; and a Canon at Brecon Cathedral from 1919 to 1923.
