Capt. John Treasure Jones became a well-known media figure in the mid-1960s following his appointment as the last Master of the famous Cunard liner, RMS Queen Mary. He has been described as one of the 20th century’s most distinguished mariners, in war and in peacetime. His forebears were men of the sea, who had captained sailing ships, and he elected to follow in their tradition. He was born on 18 August 1905, on a farm outside Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire. In 1917 he gained a scholarship to Haverfordwest Grammar School.
