Alfred Gresham Jones

Alfred Gresham Jones (1824–1915) was an Irish architect and later moved to Australia after 1888.

Jones was born in 1824 in Dublin and attended Royal Dublin Society's School of Architectural Drawing in the 1840s and spent time in London and with notable Irish architect John Skipton Mulvany before beginning his own career.[1]

His architect career in Ireland began in the 1850s and by 1888 he immigrated to Australia, but unclear if he continue his vocation.[2]

Buildings designed by Jones

Most of Jones' work was in Dublin before 1888:

Personal

Jones married Julia Charlotte Malyn (died 1929) in 1855 and they had several children (Charlotte Dixon, Alice Johnson, Mary Watson, Alfred, Maude Allen and Walter).

Later Years and Death

Jones immigrated to Australia, but does not appear to have practice architect as no major work is accounted to him during this time. He developed interest in verse during this time and died in Melbourne in 1915.[5]
