Virginian Pilot and The Norfolk Landmark June 26, 1915
The body of Nathan Sidney Jones was found yesterday afternoon at 2:45 
o'clock in the Eastern Branch of the Elizabeth River, near the point at 
which he was struck by the barge, about 100 feet from the Fosburgh log 
pound.  The body was taken to the funeral apartments of J.R. Williams.  The 
funeral will be held this afternoon at 3 o'clock from the family residence, 
10 Walnut Street.
The find was made by the dead man's sons.  A jury will view the body this 
morning and hear evidence at a time to be fixed next week.  Mr. Jones was 
considered one of the best swimmers around the port, and it is believed that 
he was stunned when struck by the barge, else he would have taken care of 
himself.
The funeral services will be conducted by Rev. A.W Shaw, pastor of Armstrong 
Memorial Presbyterian Church and burial will be in the family lot in 
Magnolia Cemetery.
