Career
Jones most likely joined Burslem Port Vale in the summer of 1890.[1] He was a regular in his first season, but was selected only intermittently from February 1891.[1] He did manage to make the first XI in the 1892 Staffordshire Senior Cup winning side though.[1] He was released at the end of the 1892–93 season having made 45 appearances (including one in the Second Division of the Football League, 20 in the Midland League and 21 friendlies) and scored seven goals (three in the Midland League and four in friendlies) for the Vale.[1]
