James' brother John was born in Dublin (source 1861 census) perhaps Thomas was Irish but then moved to Plymouth.

Have you seen James and John's Chelsea Pensioners British Army service record which may hold some clues?

Hi

Perhaps you could narrow down what it is you'd like people to look for? A christening? His parents? Census? Military records? etc
