Jones Grocery Store

Industry
4
Joseph Spurgeon Jones built the original store in Little Yadkin Township, then part of Yadkin County. In 1914, his son, Will A. Jones, moved the store across the road east of its present location. After a disastrous robbery in 1926, Will built the present structure, which included a residence. Three generations of the Jones family ran the store for a century, and subsequent owners included James and Frances Vaughn Gough.
