Moore-Jones (1868-1922) was born at Malvern Wells, England, and arrived in New Zealand in 1885. He studied art in Sydney and London. He served in the Gallipoli campaign where he made topographical sketches which, by command, he showed to the Royal Family. These sketches were secured by the Australian Government. He died of injuries received at Hamilton while assisting inmates of the Hamilton Hotel to escape from the burning building.
