About W. D. Jones
William Daniel Jones was a member of the Barrow Gang, whose spree throughout the southern Midwest in the early years of the Great Depression became part of American criminal folklore. Jones ran with Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker for eight and a half months, from Christmas Eve 1932 to early September 1933. A sketch of his role in the gang, blended with one of a later gang member, Henry Methvin, was consolidated into the "C.W. Moss" character in the film Bonnie and Clyde (1967). Of the character in the movie, Jones said: "Moss was a dumb kid who run errands and done what Clyde told him. That was me, all right."
