Samuel Jones

Biography 
Samuel Jones (1734-1819) was at first a sailor but then became a prominent lawyer and politician known as the "father of the New-York Bar." He voted against attending the Continental Congress in Philadelphia prior to the American Revolution and remained a loyalist. He later served as recorder of New York City, was a member of the New York State Senate from 1791 to 1799, and was instrumental in revising New York State statutes. Jones was appointed the first New York state comptroller in 1797, after the position was created to replace that of the state auditor. He was married to Cornelia Haring and was the father of two prominent lawyers, Samuel Jones, Jr. (who served as the chancellor for the State of New York) and David S. Jones.
Local Note 
Samuel Jones, Sr. was a trustee of the New York Society Library from 1770 to 1776 and from 1788 to 1797.
