Dora Herbert Jones (née Rowlands; 26 August 1890 – 9 January 1974) was a Welsh administrator and singer. She began singing while in school and continued doing so while studying at the University College of Wales. Jones was Herbert Lewis' secretary and organised his election campaign in the 1918 general election. She also worked for Viscount Wimborne in Ireland and then at the National Library of Wales. From 1927 to 1942, Jones worked at Gregynog Press and organised the four-day Gregynog Music Festival from 1933 to 1938. She was vice-president and later president of the Welsh Folk Song Society and performed and interpreted folk songs on radio and television. Collections connected to Jones' life are held in both the National Library of Wales and the St Fagans National Museum of History.
