Further InformationThere were two baptisms for a Thomas Jones at Southwark for 1813
1. Son of Thomas and Hannah Jones baptised 10 October 1813

Discharge at own request
He was struck off the pension list on 11 November 1878 for not having applied for his pension for over 2 years. There are sundry deaths for a Thomas Jones in Victoria between 1875 and 1877 but none have any information which could identify our pensioner.
