Kenneth Burton Jones (1952–1969), was the son of Helen Myrl Carter (of country music's Carter Family) and of Glenn Jones. He is best remembered for a song he wrote called "Sing A Traveling Song" which appeared on Johnny Cash's albums Hello, I'm Johnny Cash and Johnny Cash at Madison Square Garden. Kenneth was Cash's nephew-in-law. Cash's second wife, June Carter Cash, was Helen's sister. Kenneth, or Kenny as he was also known, wrote many songs and was a talented musician. At the time of his death, he was under contract with Monument Records and appeared destined for a highly successful career. Following his death the Carter Family recorded one of his songs, 2001 Ballad to the Future. A few have noted the lyrics as being eerily prophetic of the September 11 attacks on the United States which took place more than thirty years after the song was written.
