No full textAnn was born to William Thomas Jones and his wife Mary Ann nee Elliott. Ann moved with her father, brothers and sisters, Emily, Ada and Marion Pinder, to Palmerston in November 1890 when her father was appointed Sub-Inspector of Customs to succeed Alfred Searcy. Her mother had died in 1881. Her father died suddenly in December 1891 and is buried in the Palmerston Cemetery, but the sisters stayed together.
In 1895, when Ann was 34, she was one of the 82 women who enrolled to vote after the franchise was granted to South Australian and Territory women in 1894. Her occupation was listed as "spinster". However, she had employment as a domestic according to later roll listings. She was taken off the roll again in 1907 because she had left Palmerston. Ann died at 76 in Queensland in 1934.Community Servic

“A Conversation Between Kip Jones and Patricia Leavy: Arts-Based Research, Performative Social Science and Working on the Margins.”
Get PDFThis paper reports a conversation between international pioneers in Arts-Based Research and Performative Social Science, Patricia Leavy and Kip Jones. They begin by delineating the differences between research and/or dissemination that use tools from the Arts in their production. Leavy turns to her fiction writing as an example, while Jones discusses the making of his research-based short film, Rufus Stone. The conversation then turns to how these novel approaches have changed the way in which they work and these efforts in relation to the academy. The concept of “audience” is raised. Both then give examples of taking alternative routes in their career paths and funding for this kind of work. Jones specifically talks about using creativity in all our approaches, including small-scale projects that rely on creativity rather than money. He suggests being creative in the ways in which we write for publication and present our work to other academics. Leavy ends the conversation by discussing taking risks and walking through fear. Jones recommends not working in silos, but letting all parts of our lives influence our outputs

An Interview with Edward P. Jones
Get PDFThis is the publisher's version, also available electronically from http://www.jstor.org/stable/40301244?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contentsEdward P. Jones is a writer of the kind of fiction one might have thought was going out of style: readable, absorbing, and exquisitely literary. After a startling publishing debut with Lost in the City, stories drawn from his native Washington, D. C, Jones went on to win die Pulitzer Prize for The Known World in 2004, an unusual story about a former slave-turned-slaveowner in antebellum Virginia. He published his third book in die fall of 2006, All Aunt Hagar's Children, a collection of short stories about ordinary people, whom we see as only they can be. Jones pays careful attention to presenting the circumstances of their lives and the consequences of their choices. Neither blaming the victims nor forgetting that they exist, Jones is more concerned with alerting us to the characters' contradictions, i.e., what makes them human. Unlike the brooding sensibility of Faulkner's fiction or the violent rage that characterizes Wright's work, Jones's world has a sober inclusiveness. He mediates his characters' lives with elegant, understated prose that is as compelling as it is persuasive. Each page is a reminder of his artistry and the compassion he feels for each of his characters. This interview was conducted shortly before die release of die hardcover edition of All Aunt's Hagar's Children, August 18, 2006, at Union Station in Washington, D. C. A trade paperback edition of die book was published in August 2007

City-Region Building and Geohistorical Matters
Get PDFIn an article published nearly 15 years ago MacLeod and Jones (2001), carefully reviewed, situated, extended, and above all celebrated the enormous intellectual contributions of Anssi Paasi to the scholarly project of doing ‘regions in geography’. Situated within, and going beyond, the ‘new regional geography’ movement in human geography and the social sciences more broadly, they looked at Paasi’s thinking on regionalization processes, abstracted in four stages, which collectively allowed them to advance (as they claimed) a meaningful understanding of regional change. Rolling forward the research clock to the likes of the Northern Powerhouse and other devolution events across the UK, the authors of this paper maintain that Passi’s framework remains a cutting-edge theoretical framework in and through which to examine region-building processes and practices. This chapter accordingly looks at the ‘new new localism’ and suggests the need to now think about the dawn of a ‘new new regional geography’
