Ada Jones (1. jun 1873 – 2. maj 1922)[1] bila je američka pjevačica rodom iz Engleske koja je stekla popularnost u SAD početkom 20. vijeka. Kao dijete je nastupala u glumeći teatru, a 1890-ih je snimila nekoliko ploča. Međutim, njena karijera je zapravo počela 1905. godine. Snimila je nekoliko dueta s Billyjem Murrayem i Lenom Spencerom.

Umrla je od zatajenja bubrega na turneji, ostavivši iza sebe supruga Hugha Flahertyja i kći.
