Alfred Edwin Jones (1894–1973) was an eminent Irish architect. His collection of files about Irish architects formed the basis of the ''Dictionary of Irish Architects 1720–1940''. == Childhood and youth== Alfred Edwin Jones, only son of Felix Thomas Jones and Mary Mitchell, was born in Shorncliff, Kent, England, on 14 August 1894. He spent his early childhood in Rawlpindi where his father was a sergeant major in the 4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards. On his father’s retirement from the service in 1895 the family moved to Dublin, Ireland.〔(Irish Architectural Archive – Dictionary of Irish Architects 1720–1940 )〕 Educated by the Jesuits at Belvedere College, Alfred pursued a variety of careers before becoming apprenticed to the architectural practice of Ashlin & Coleman c. 1911. He first attracted notice about this time when his measured drawing of the ceiling of Belvedere's Apollo Room was featured in the ''Irish Builder''. A design for an iron railing and gate which won him the Gold Medal at the Father Matthew Feis, two years later, was published in the same journal. Earlier illustrations by Jones had appeared in the third, fourth and fifth volumes of the ''Irish Georgian Society Records'' (1911–1913). By 1914 he was an assistant in the practice of Rudolf Maximilian Butler with a growing reputation. In 1918 his drawings of the Marino Casino won him the ''Downes Bronze Medal'' of the Architectural Association of Ireland, according to the judges, ' one of the finest specimens of draughtsmanship ever produced by a member of the Association'.〔Dictionary of Irish Architects 1720–1940〕
