He was the son of Augustus Jones, a retired surveyor and his Christian name was Peter Jones.
He was a Mississauga Ojibwa chief, member of the eagle totem, farmer, Methodist minister, author and translator.
He became a convert of the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1823. He married Elizabeth Field in New York City on 8 September 1833. On 6 October 1833, he became a fully ordained Methodist minister. As a chief of his community, the Mississaugas of the Credit River, he fought for over a quarter of a century for Mississauga land rights and for those of other Ojibwa communities throughout southern Ontario. He died on 29 June 1856 near Brantford, Upper Canada.
Hill & Adamson : David Octavius Hill was born in Scotland in 1802. He became a portraitist and photographer in 1843. That same year, he was assigned to paint over 400 delegates at the Convention creating the Free Church of Scotland. But the task was too vast for a single person to paint all the delegates. A scientist, Sir David Brewster, who mastered the calotype, saw in this new process, the solution to Hill's problem. He suggested that Hill seek the help of the chemist, Robert Adamson, born in Scotland on 26 April 1821. From that day on, they became partner and made over 1500 negatives of various subjects, never leaving the British Isles. Their partnership lasted almost five years, until Adamson's death in 1848. Hill died in Edinburgh in 1870.Information additionnelle :Signatures et inscriptions :in pencil, verso t.: The Rev. Mr. JonesVedette-matière :Source :Privé -
