This Archives and Publics post provides an update to Dr. Barbara McCaskill and Christina L. Davis's continuing research on J. (Joseph) Richardson Jones. Pictured below is a revised timeline of Jones's early involvement in radio and vaudeville, which was compiled by Davis based on her research of historic black newspapers. If any blog readers have access to transcription discs or memorabilia from of any of these performances please contact Dr. McCaskill, who's information can be found here.
In addition to the updated timeline, AARL Archives Division is also proud to present a link to the
New Georgia Encyclopedia article on J. (Joseph) Richardson Jones, authored by McCaskill and Davis. See
here. The article is proof of the dedication and collaborative spirit they have exhibited through their research, and we congratulate them on its publication!
