About Orlando Jones

Orlando Jones was a planter and politician who served in the House of Burgesses of the Colony of Virginia. He was the son of Rowland Jones, the first minister of Bruton Parish. Jones was educated at the College of William & Mary's grammar school in Middle Plantation. There, he likely played a role in the 1699 May Day orations that led to the colonial capital being moved from Jamestown to Middle Plantation, which became Williamsburg. He represented King William County in the House of Burgesses in 1714, 1715, and 1718. He was the maternal grandfather of Martha Washington. His house in Williamsburg was reconstructed in the 1940s by Colonial Williamsburg.
