John George Jones (September 18, 1849 – June 7, 1914)[1] was an American lawyer, and state legislator in Chicago, Illinois who advocated for civil rights.
Jones studied law and was admitted to the Illinois bar on March 24, 1881.
Known as "Indignation" Jones, due to his assertiveness as he fought for civil rights in the state of Illinois, he practiced criminal law in his Chicago, Illinois office located at 191 Clark Street.
Jones died on June 7, 1914, and was interred at the Oakwood Cemetery in Chicago.
In 2002, the General Grand Masonic Congress dedicated a memorial wall to him at that cemetery.
