You can get a copy of Samuel's obit through the Dayton Library. Everything you need to know is at http://www.daytonmetrolibrary.org/hobits/index.php/. They will scan his obit and email it to you no charge. Allow up to 3 weeks for it as they are very busy in the summer months.

Dayton National Cemetery records show:
Jones, Samuel C, d. 07/12/1900, Infantry, SGT, Res: Tustin, MI, Plot: M 3 9, bur. 07/12/1900.
