Thomas' uncle John lived until 1820, in Froyle. 35 On 21 Feb 1821, Thomas Bone was admitted to the Church of Christ (Independent), College Street, Petersfield, Co.

He later told how he could pick from his father's apple trees reaching over the fence from the school yard. He may instead have attended the British boys and girls school on College Street. 73 He was a Master Brewer and beer retailer in 1865 at College Street, Petersfield, Co. Hampshire, England. 74,75 He and Kate Stallard emigrated circa 1867 to Canada; Possibly the Bones first settled in Islington, Ontario (prob. with the Stallards in 1867) -- just west of Toronto, then moved on to St. Joseph, Missouri, and then returned to Allandale and Barrie by 1880. 42,76,77 12
