Jones is a surname of Welsh origins, meaning John's, as in John's son. It is most common in Wales and south central England. In Ireland the surname has been Gaelicized as MacSeoin.
In Wales, the use of Jones as a surname did not really begin until about the 16th century, when the Welsh started to adopt the use of surnames (last names) as a naming convention.2.lthough the Jones last name is often times thought to have originated in Wales, the earliest documented mention of the Jones family name is actually found in 13th century records for England.
