Jeremiah Jones, black soldier and WWI hero, honoured by Parks Canada

Descendants remember Jones as a patriot and proud member of the African Nova Scotian community

Descendants of African Nova Scotian war hero Jeremiah Jones, who overcame racial barriers to enlist in the army, and then single-handedly stormed and captured a German machine-gun nest, were presented with an honorary plaque by Parks Canada staff at a private ceremony on Citadel Hill in Halifax today.

A commemorative panel displaying Jones’s photograph and story is now part of a special exhibit located in the trench surrounding the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site.

The exhibit, called Hometown Heroes, was organized by Parks Canada in the lead-up to Canada’s 150th anniversary as a way to commemorate individuals who made unique contributions to the war effort during the First and Second World Wars.

Marie Francis, granddaughter of Jeremiah Jones, said her grandfather — who everybody called “Daddy Jones” — was 58 when he enlisted in the 106th infantry battalion from Truro. His act of heroism occurred at Vimy Ridge in 1917.

“The Allies were pinned down and he volunteered” to try and capture a German machine-gun nest, Francis told CBC’s Information Morning.

“He manoeuvred around the nest and he went in and scared the life out of them,” she said. “Because here is this big black man and he knew a bit of German.

“He captured the machine-gun nest and then marched them back to the front lines,” Francis said. Then, she said, Jones threw his machine-gun down in front of the battalion leader and asked: “Is this thing any good to you?”
