Claude D. Jones was injured July 15th while at work in caboose No. 2445, on an extra train westbound, No. 297, about five miles west of Wamsutter. Mr. Jones was conductor in charge of the extra which was following a work crew, picking up cars of scraps.

On the car in front of the caboose among the other materials, were a couple of steel rails and the cars were not provided with up rights to hold same in place. The car was bumped and one of the rails fell off, striking on one end and turning completely over and the other end going through the back end of the caboose and striking the conductor in the temple as he was at work at his desk. The accident was at the station known as Frewen at 1:08 p.m., and he was hurried to Rawlins but died at Wood’s Cut at 2:08 p.m. on the way. He left Rawlins the same morning at 7:00 on his trip.

Coroner McAllister went to the scene of the accident taking a jury from here, and the inquest was held. The verdict was returned that deceased came to his death from negligence of the Union Pacific Railroad company, in not furnishing proper equipment for cars to load scrap material.

Deceased was a married man and had no children. He was very well known in Rock Springs and his friends are grieved to learn of his untimely death. The funeral was held at Rawlins yesterday afternoon.7 
Burial*18 July 1912He was buried on 18 July 1912 in Plot 3-H-10-1 of Rawlins Cemetery, Rawlins, Carbon County, Wyoming.2

Elizabeth Jones1

Father*______ Jones2
MarriageFebruary 1635She married at Salisbury, Somerset County, England, as his second wife, Antony Thacher, son of Reverend Peter Thacher of Queen Camel, in February 1635 about six weeks before the date of their sailing to New England.2 
Emigration*20 March 1635Elizabeth's brother, Richard Jones, had been living in Dinder, Somerset County, England, when he sailed to New England from Weymouth, County Dorset on 20 March 1635.2 
Emigration*5 April 1635Elizabeth and her new husband of just a few weeks, Antony Thacher, with the four oldest of Antony's five children, and his nephew, Thomas Thacher, sailed from Southampton, Hampshire, England, to New England on 5 April 1635 on the ship James of London.2 
(Wife) Relocation15 August 1635 Neither the exact place, nor date, of landing in New England of the ship James has been agreed upon by historians. Whether Boston, Newbury or Ipswich, wherever the passengers first landed, Antony Thacher and Joseph Avery and their families sojourned for a short time in Ipswich, Massachusetts. While there, Reverend Avery received a call to preach in Marblehead, then a part of Salem. During the time he took for deliberation, the two families removed to Newbury with plans to settle there. But after Avery accepted the call to Marblehead, he and his family of eleven all told, accompanied by Antony Thacher and his wife Elizabeth (Jones) Thacher, and his children by his first wife, William, Edith, Mary and Peter, went back to Ipswich. From there they embarked for Marblehead. Antony Thacher's nephew, Thomas Thacher, who had sailed with his uncle's family to New England, felt a sentiment of evil about the trip and did not accompany them on the voyage. Instead Thomas decided to make the journey overland despite the danger of being attacked by hostile Indians. The Thacher-Avery party embarked from Ipswich for Marblehead in a pinnace and the vessel was wrecked on 15 August 1635. All on board were lost except Antony Thacher and his second wife Elizabeth (Jones) Thacher.2 
Residence*After some moving around, Elizabeth and Antony Thacher settled in Yarmouth, Plymouth Colony.2 
(Wife) Deathbetween 30 June 1667 and 22 August 1667Elizabeth became a widow when Antony Thacher died between 30 June 1667 and 22 August 1667.2
