Biography
professional photographer, watchmaker and jeweller, was born in Bristol, Gloucestershire. He and his wife Mary Ann came to Victoria with their son Henry and possibly a daughter in the late 1850s. Henry senior was listed in 1859 as a daguerrean and photographic artist of 107 Elizabeth Street, Melbourne and is recorded by Davies and Stanbury as taking pannotypes (photographs on leather to send through the post) when working from John Noone 's former rooms at 41 Collins Street West in 1860. The following year, he moved to 8 Bourke Street East, formerly J.W. Baume 's studio. Jones was back in his Elizabeth Street rooms in 1863-65, with a branch studio at 17 James Street, Williamstown. The latter continued into 1866, when the Melbourne studio was relocated to 19 Collins Street East. Later that year Jones moved to South Australia and became a camera operator for Townsend Duryea in Adelaide. He ran his own photographic studio in King William Street in 1870-79 in conjunction with a watchmaking and jewellery business. He was at Wakefield Street in 1880-84 then opened a studio called The Children’s Photographic Company on the corner of King William and Hindley Streets, presumably run by the family. Eight of Jones’s untouched full-length carte-de-visite portraits shown with the South Australian Society of Arts in 1871 won a guinea prize. That same year Jones produced his best-known works: photographs of the 500 South Australian pioneer couples who attended Solomon’s 'Banquet to the Pioneers’ made up into two mosaics, one of the men and one of the women (Mortlock Library).
