He is fairly easy to find in the previous censuses, you need to take out that trial ancestry/FMP subscription, or update genes membership.

Hi there,

I have just discovered a VERY distant cousin of mine, Thomas Rymer Jones (1810-Whitby - 1880 in London) was a surgeon and then zoologist and was a FRS. He has a brass memorial in London University. More on his proffesional career can be found here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Rymer_Jones

His mother is a distant relative of mine and although I have a lot of information on her family, I am looking to see if Thomas married and is he had any descendants.

Can you help?

Thank you,

Peter
