Jones Lumber Company

Business

In 1928 Clarence Jones started the Jones Lumber Company. After the trade was built up the lumber company kept expanding and eventually comprised an office, sheds and a mill building. The enterprise took up the north and south sides of 4224 East Belknap. In 1954 the Jones Lumber Company opened a new building to celebrate its 25th Anniversary. The building was designed by Briley Jones, Clarence's great-nephew, who had a degree in architecture from Texas A&M.
