Inigo and Marion Jones in their garden at Crohamhurst, ca 1935 Inigo Jones, long-range weather forecaster, was born at Croydon, Surrey, England, on 1 December 1872, the son of Owen Jones, a civil engineer and a descendant of Inigo Jones, the noted English architect. Jones' parents migrated to Australia in 1874 and settled forty miles north of Brisbane. Inigo was educated at Brisbane Grammar School. Clement Wragge, the Queensland Government Meteorologist, was so impressed by the boy's interest and ability that he recruited him as an observer. A few years later the family acquired a farm and settled at Beerwah naming their property 'Crohamhurst' after Lord Goschen's Surrey estate. Here Jones set up his meteorological station, which he maintained for almost sixty-six years. In 1923 Jones began issuing long-range weather forecasts for which he was to become famous.
