   Was there a William Edward jones the second?

   I have been informed it was William Edward jones, .

   Bitsnbobs123.a, I can see that there was a painter named William Edward Jones, but his lifespan is problematic, yes?:

   FWIW, the name looks more to me like William Edward Johns. That surname might look a bit odd, but it's not uncommon in the UK. Like Jones, it's Welsh. An alternate version would be Evans.
   
   Unfortunately, I haven't found any painters by that name. :-(

   There is another William Edward jones born 1827 died 1908 .

   I have uploaded the only painting I could find, it’s on art net but I’m not a member so I can’t see how much it sold for.

   Cool. :-)
   
   Yeah, the lifespan on this one is right.
   
   I see that particular work (Sunday Morning in Clifton Bristol) sold in 2013:

   I was hoping to find a sample of his signature, but no joy so far.
   
   That site artnet dot com seems to have quite a few of his works:

   Looks like "William Edward Johns" who probably was a local painter in Scotland. I'm not an expert, to me, he captured the windy day excellently.
9. Bitsnbobs123.a, 3 years ago
   There is one of his paintings pictured above,

    Bitsnbobs123.a, Sorry, no, I am not a member of artnet dot com. :-(
    
    Any time I feel compelled to create another username/password for an account somewhere, another little piece of me dies. >8-0
