Thanks for those who responded. With a name as JONES from Wales it makes things more difficult to know if we have the correct person or not. I know he ended up in Victoria, if landed in Sydney how did they get to Victoria in those days please?

Even if there were he probably would be recorded as either Mr JONES or D JONES. There again he might have travelled to Melbourne by train and even on horse back/shankes pony or combo of both .
