:''This article is about the Welsh-American Latter-day Saint missionary and pioneer. For the unrelated American Latter-day Saint pioneer and missionary of a similar name, see Daniel Webster Jones (Mormon). For other persons named Dan Jones or Daniel Jones, see Daniel Jones (disambiguation).'' Dan Jones (4 August 1810 – 3 January 1862) (often referred to as Captain Dan) was an influential Welsh missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Jones is well known for having heard the "final prophecy" of Joseph Smith, namely, that Jones would fulfill a mission to Wales before he died. ==Early life== Jones was born in Halkyn, in the county of Flintshire, north-east Wales, the sixth of Thomas Jones and Ruth Roberts’s eight children. When he was sixteen years old, Jones became a sailor. On 3 January 1837, Jones married Jane Melling, a childhood friend from Halkyn. In 1840, Jones and his wife emigrated to the United States, where Jones became captain of the ''Ripple'', a steamship on the Mississippi River. The ''Ripple'' primarily carried passengers between New Orleans and St. Louis. After the ''Ripple'' struck a rock and sank, Jones captained the ''Maid of Iowa'', which could transport approximately 300 passengers.
