Have you found Thomas in the 1841 census? Does it say he was born in Scotland?

I haven't found him in 1841, though I have found his wife and daughter (Ann and Emma Masters) in Market Place, St Peter Port.
I think family legend is that he was a sailor, though.

Do you have any documentary evidence that he was born in Scotland? Just in case the Bo'ness Thomas is not him.

No, I cannot be sure he is the Bo'ness Thomas. I think the records I have are from the LDS, and it just says "BIRTH: A native of Scotland"

In that case it is worth going back to the LDS site to see if you can find any reference to a document linking him to Scotland. Maybe someone else has found the entry in the 1841 census and taken it from there.
