Catherine Hannah Griffiths, her sister Mary Ann Griffiths, and their brother James Lloyd Griffiths all married into the John J. Jones family.

Thus three siblings married three siblings:

Griffiths, John Jenkin and Eleanor Lloyd (Parents)
Griffiths, Mary Ann (1860) - Jones, John G. (1856)
Griffiths, James Lloyd (1863) - Jones, Sarah Ellen (1867)
Griffiths, Catherine Hannah (1873) - Jones, Evan D. (1860)

Jones, John J. and Sarah Griffiths (Parents)
Jones, John G. (1856) - Griffiths, Mary Ann (1860)
Jones, Sarah Ellen (1867) - Griffiths, James Lloyd (1863)
Jones, Evan D. (1860) - Griffiths, Catherine Hannah (1873)

The Jones children were simply following their parents' example. Yes, that's right - John J. Jones and Sarah Griffiths had married siblings as well!

Griffiths, Evan and Eleanor Jones (Parents)
Griffiths, John Evan (1833) - Jones, Margaret (1834)
Griffiths, Sarah (1835) - Jones, John J. (1836)

Jones, John and Margaret Thomas (Parents)
Jones, Margaret (1834) - Griffiths, John Evan (1833)
Jones, John J. (1836) - Griffiths, Sarah (1835)

Getting all this straight would be a wonderful activity at the next Griffiths-Jones family reunion, but then there wouldn't be any time left for a water fight!
