People never got pensions then...and he never married, probably because he or his spouses (defacto spouses) were married already.

He was given an Absolute Pardon a year after he arrived...that almost never happened Conditional pardons were the norm. I do not think he ever got into trouble.

Hi

May I mention that the NSW Archives ONLINE index shows that James TEMPLETON was awarded a CONDITIONAL pardon on 4 June 1803.  Their ref is 4/4430 and Reel 774,pg 25.

ADD  Re Pensions

I am sure there was many a convict while serving their sentence in NSW who were appointed as Constables.  Here’s an example, a  Daniel GEARY, awarded a pension of one shilling a Day and recommended for a Conditional Pardon ... 
Sydney Herald 2 May 1831.  https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/12842976


I am not aware of an online database for pensioners  info for that penal era.
