Manatee Warriors the Beginning: (ePub)

Warren Levi Jones was born on July 11, 1959 in Jacksonville Florida. He is the eighth of nine children, born to his parents, Mrs. Thelma L. Jones and the late Mr. Arthur Jones.
As a young boy, the Jones brothers and some of the other neighborhood children would walk down to a place known in Jacksonville as McCoy’s Creek, on the west side of town. There, he and some of his friends would watch the Manatees feed on the plant life.
