Dr H P Jones. Retired ULM History Professor.

Dr Jones gave a spirited lecture on the War of 1812 at the Northeast Louisiana Historical and Genealogical Society meeting in Monroe today. Dr Jones was  a Marine in the Korean War, earned a Doctorate at Ole Miss, and taught history at the University of Louisiana at Monroe for 47 years.

Dr Jones really knows his subject and I enjoyed his lecture.

  1. Hi Mr. Chuck,
    Dr. Jones was one of the most popular professors at ULM (NLU back then) when I was a student there. If I remember correctly he would start each semester off with a grand entrance into the classroom. It seems like I remember hearing that he was carried into class in a coffin once! I didn't have him for any of my many history classes but several of my friends did. He had a reputation for being fun but tough. I am glad to see that he is still sharing his knowledge.
    Much Love,
    Andrea (A.B.)
