    “My father, Martin Jones, came here in ’52. Four years later when, at twenty-seven, he got married he built a frame house about a mile northeast of town and lived and died in it. Mother was Margaret McCarty and was heir to a large estate in Ireland but it made no difference in her life as a pioneer. She was married at sixteen and had eleven children without being attended by a doctor and not one of them weighed less than twelve pounds at birth. Father was a farmer, freighter and cattleman.

Farmer Jones Fires Several shots and Kills Jack Welch for Unknown Reason.
Thomas N. Jones, a farmer residing on his own ranch, situated on the Middle fork of the Tuolumne river, near the old Drew place, and about 18 miles above Groveland, shot to death Jack Welch Wednesday Evening. The crime was committed about 6 o'clock in the evening, and was not witnessed by any person, save the man who executed the fatal work. Later parties arrived on the scene and a messenger was dispatch to Groveland to inform the authorities of what had happened. Justice J. C. DeFerrari was apprised of the tragedy and in turn notified Coroner Burden. The Coroner directed the justice to proceed to the scene and hold an inquest.
he official inquiry and investigation, while searching and close, failed to reveal just what precipitated the scene and hold an inquest.
he official inquiry and investigation, while searching and close, failed to reveal just what precipitated the tragedy, other than both men had been drinking more or less heavily. Justice DeFerrari found the body of Welch on the ground beneath a shed roof adjoining the dwelling house. These was a hole in the side of Welch's body. No weapons of any kind were found upon or around where Welch was stretched out upon the ground.
The only person in the near vicinity when the shooting occurred was Mrs. Hazel Ferretta, a young married daughter of Jones, who had come to her father's place on September 13th from one of the northern counties. Mrs. Ferretta was a witness at the inquest, but she could not, or at least did not, make any statement regarding what caused the trouble. She was in the house, according to her statement, when she heard either three or four shots. She did not see who fired them. In regard to the number of shots she was corroborated by other witnesses living at a distance who stated they had heard from two to four shots.
About an hour after the shooting Chas. White and Charles Jones, the latter a brother of the accused man, arrived on the scene. Welch was still alive and conscious. He asked for and was given a drink of water, dying fifteen minutes later.
The acting Coroner secured the automatic revolver with which the shooting had been done. Jones did not make any statement regarding the affair. He was placed under arrest by Constable J. H. DeMartini, who will lodge him in the county jail this Friday afternoon. He is a widower, aged 46 years. Last week he perfected his title to government land, submitting the proof before County Clerk Doyle in this city.
Jack Welch, the slain man, was 38 years old and a laborer. It was learned that deceased was a resident of Calaveras county at one time and inquiries directed by Coroner Burden elicited the response that Welch's parents, now both dead, had been residents of that county, and that a sister is living somewhere in San Joaquin county. Attempts to locate her have failed.
Undertaker Harry Burden went to Groveland, where he will receive and convey the remains to Sonora. coroner Burden will have a post mortem examination made, and if no word is received from relatives in the meantime, will conduct the funeral from his undertaking parlors today.
