History
Oscar Henry Jones (1875-1960), son of Henry Jones of Strathelie, Broadmarsh, was born on 25 June 1875, educated at Hutchins School and then articled to Butler, McIntyre and Butler, and was admitted to the Bar on 18 April 1898. He joined George Murdoch to form Murdoch and Jones and managed the Queenstown office (formerly Williams & Page) from April 1899. He was a member of the Queenstown Masonic Lodge, Mount Lyell, No. 24, T.C. He appears to have left the Queenstown office and returned to the Broadmarsh district about 1902 or 1903. Murdoch & Jones later took another partner, Charles D' Arcy Cuthbert, who had served articles with Murdoch and was admitted as solicitor on 15 Aug. 1900.
