Jones and Son Funeral Home Obituaries: Official Archive, Locations and Next Steps
Jones and Son Funeral Home serves families through multiple south Mississippi locations, including Richton, Moselle, Hattiesburg, and Beaumont. The official obituary archive is the safest starting point because individual memorial pages may include the full obituary, visitation, funeral service, burial, cemetery, flower, tribute, and direction details.
Before you travel, send flowers, or share a service time, open the full official memorial. Jones & Son may handle the arrangements from one location while the service itself may be at a church, cemetery, graveside location, chapel, or another venue.
Reviewed September 30, 2026. Recheck the official memorial before traveling, ordering flowers, sharing details, or making time-sensitive arrangements.

How to Search Jones and Son Funeral Home Obituaries
The official Jones and Son obituary page includes recent obituaries, a name search field, veteran-obituary filtering, obituary-text search, and date-range fields. Start there instead of a copied obituary page because the official memorial is the best place to verify service, burial, flower, and location details.
- Open the official obituary archive.
Go to Jones and Son Funeral Home Obituaries. - Search the full name first.
Use the person’s full published name. If that does not work, try surname only, maiden name, married name, nickname, middle initial, or a shorter spelling. - Use advanced search when needed.
Try obituary-text search, date-of-death range, or the veterans-only filter if you know the person’s service background. - Open the full memorial.
Do not rely only on the preview card. The full memorial may show funeral service, visitation, cemetery, flower store, memorial tree, officiant, and location details. - Confirm the person.
Compare life dates, residence, relatives, community, church, cemetery, and whether Richton, Moselle, Hattiesburg, or Beaumont appears. - Read service and burial separately.
One memorial can list a funeral home, a church, and a cemetery as separate destinations. - Recheck before travel.
For an upcoming service, reopen the official memorial shortly before leaving. - Share the official URL.
Sharing the official memorial link is safer than copying the entire obituary text into a message or social post.
Search tip: Jones & Son memorials may involve Richton, Moselle, Hattiesburg, Beaumont, Ellisville, Petal, Purvis, Seminary, Wiggins, and other south Mississippi communities. Match the person and event venue before acting.

Before Attending a Jones and Son Service
| Check | Why it matters | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Which Jones & Son location | The same official site serves Richton, Moselle, Hattiesburg, and Beaumont. | Look inside the memorial for the chapel or location name. |
| Church service | The official burial-service page says the funeral service can be held in a chapel, church, or another venue chosen by the family. | Map the church or venue if the memorial names one. |
| Interment / cemetery | Burial can follow at a cemetery in another town or county. | Record the cemetery separately from the funeral service. |
| Private or pending arrangements | Some notices may be posted before every service detail is final. | Reopen the live memorial later or call the correct location. |
| Flowers / memorial gifts | The family may prefer flowers, memorial trees, church gifts, charity donations, or no flowers. | Read the full memorial before ordering. |
| Parking / accessibility | A single parking rule will not fit every chapel, church, cemetery, or graveside location. | Call the relevant Jones & Son location if same-day travel or accessibility matters. |

Funeral Prices, Services, Pre-Planning and What to Ask
The official Jones and Son homepage links to services, send-flowers, and plan-ahead routes. Its history page says the company offers funeral and life insurance, a pre-need funeral program, and cemetery monuments in addition to funeral services. Do not estimate current costs from old posts, third-party obituary pages, or another funeral home. Call the verified location and ask for current price information before making decisions.
Burial services
The official burial-services page says a service can be held in the funeral home chapel, a church, or another venue the family chooses.
Pre-planning
Use the official plan-ahead route when families want to discuss future wishes or pre-need questions.
Flowers
Use the correct memorial or official flowers route so any order connects to the right person and service.
FTC price rights
Ask for current price information, the General Price List, itemized charges, and third-party cash-advance items.
What to ask by phone
- “Are arrangements being handled through Richton, Moselle, Hattiesburg, or Beaumont?”
- “Can you provide current price information and your General Price List?”
- “Which costs are funeral-home charges, and which are cemetery, clergy, obituary, flowers, permit, transportation, or other cash-advance charges?”
- “What documents and information should the family bring to the arrangement meeting?”
- “Is the service at the funeral home, a church, cemetery, graveside location, or another venue?”
- “How many certified Mississippi death certificates should the family order for banks, insurance, property, benefits, or probate work?”
Practical call shortcut: before calling, write down the person’s full name, the location listed in the memorial, the service date if known, and the exact question you need answered.
Mississippi Death Certificates: What Jones and Son Families Should Know
A Jones and Son obituary is not a certified death certificate. Mississippi death certificates are handled through official vital-record routes. The Mississippi State Department of Health says the certified death-certificate fee is $17, and CDC/NCHS lists additional copies of the same record ordered at the same time at $6 each.
| Need | Official route | What to prepare |
|---|---|---|
| Certified Mississippi death certificate | Use Mississippi State Department of Health Vital Records death-certificate guidance. | Legal name, date of death, county/place of death, eligible relationship or tangible-interest information, ID, fee, mailing address, and certified-copy quantity. |
| Fee planning | MSDH lists a $17 certified death-certificate fee. | CDC/NCHS lists additional copies of the same record ordered at the same time at $6 each. |
| Online or phone ordering | MSDH uses VitalChek for online or phone ordering, with extra vendor fees. | Use the state’s official online/phone route rather than a random third-party ad. |
| Out-of-state death | Use CDC/NCHS Where to Write for Vital Records to find the correct state office. | Follow the state where the death occurred, not the funeral location. |
- Confirm where the death occurred, not only where the funeral will be held.
- Open MSDH death-certificate application instructions.
- Use CDC/NCHS Mississippi vital records guidance if you need a concise state route and fee check.
- Prepare eligible-requester information, photo ID, payment, mailing details, and number of certified copies.
- Use certified copies—not an obituary printout—for banks, insurance, pensions, titles, property, and probate tasks.
Medical examiner route: Mississippi Department of Public Safety guidance says once the county medical examiner investigator has certified the death, the death certificate is transmitted to Mississippi Vital Records by the funeral home or crematory handling arrangements. Families still obtain certified copies through Vital Records.
South Mississippi Probate, Chancery and Estate Tasks After a Jones and Son Obituary
An obituary does not appoint an executor, transfer real estate, release a bank account, or replace court paperwork. In Mississippi, probate, estate, land-record, and chancery-related questions are usually local county matters. Choose the county route based on residence, property, and estate facts—not only which funeral-home chapel handled arrangements.
Forrest County / Hattiesburg route
Forrest County Chancery Court and Chancery Clerk resources are relevant when an estate or property matter belongs in Forrest County.
Tenth Chancery District
The Tenth Chancery District includes Forrest, Lamar, Marion, Pearl River, and Perry counties, with chancery courthouses in their county seats.
Perry County / Richton-Beaumont area
Perry County Chancery Clerk guidance says wills are only on file if they have been filed in probate of an estate.
What to bring
Certified death certificate, will if there is one, asset/debt list, family contact details, property information, and ID.
County routing point: Hattiesburg, Richton, Moselle, and Beaumont can point to different county or court routes. If property, residence, or assets are unclear, ask the Chancery Clerk or a Mississippi attorney before filing.
Veteran Families: Jones and Son, VA Benefits and Local Routing
The Jones and Son official obituary search includes a veterans-only filter, which can help locate memorials for families specifically looking for Veteran notices. Benefit eligibility and cemetery scheduling, however, should still be verified with official VA or Mississippi Veteran resources.
VA burial and memorial benefits
Use VA for burial allowance, national cemetery, headstone/marker, medallion, and burial-flag questions.
VA burial allowance
Use VA’s burial allowance page when reimbursement or transportation-benefit questions apply.
Mississippi Veterans Affairs
Use Mississippi VA resources for state Veteran cemetery and benefit-routing questions.
Ask Jones & Son
Ask whether the funeral home can help coordinate military honors, flag presentation, cemetery timing, or service logistics.
For another page that separates funeral-home service details from Veteran and cemetery tasks, see the Powers Funeral Home obituary guide.

Check survivor benefitsSSA survivor benefits may apply to eligible spouses, divorced spouses, children, or dependent parents.
Check Veteran benefitsUse VA and Mississippi Veteran resources when applicable.
Handle probateUse the proper Mississippi chancery/county route when estate authority, property, or accounts are involved.
