History of Jones Islands

On July 24, 1837, P. W. Dease and Thomas Simpson reported, "a range of low islands eight miles in length, to which we attached the name of the Reverend David T. Jones, the faithful and eloquent minister at Red River" (T. Simpson, 1843, p. 129). Recent maps have extended the name west to include Thetis Island. See Thetis Island.
