Wendell Phillips Jones (November 25, 1866 – September 29, 1944) was a Canadian politician who was a member of the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick and Mayor of Woodstock, New Brunswick.[1]

From 1903 to 1908, represented Carleton County in the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick. From 1905 to 1908 he was Solicitor General in the governments of Lemuel J. Tweedie, William Pugsley, and Clifford W. Robinson.[2]

Jones also served as the Secretary-Treasurer of Carleton County and from 1913 to 1914 was the Mayor of Woodstock.[2]

In 1930, Jones returned to politics as leader of the New Brunswick Liberal Association. The Liberals lost the 1930 general election and Jones failed to win a seat in the legislature.[3] He was succeeded as leader by Allison Dysart in 1932.

Notes

1.^ Carleton County sent three representatives to the Legislative Assembly during Jones' tenure. In 1903, Jones and Frank Smith succeeded Stephen Burpee Appleby and Hugh H. McCain. The third member, James Kidd Flemming, was reelected.[2]

gollark: "Recent" meaning "made within about 15 years". Excluding really bad atoms I guess.

gollark: Any recent x86 thing will be more powerful than the pi anyway.

gollark: My *phone* can run python.

gollark: It seems pointless to buy a dedicated device to learn python.

gollark: They probably only have one copy and want to see if anyone is insane enough to buy it, or something. Or it's been bid up by the weird autopricing algorithms in use.
