Hi robertaj,
His name was sometimes written COWL, COWELL, COWELS or COWLES. So perhaps you could broaden your search by using these names ..
Do you know what date he died and where he is buried. Would help in a search

* Thomas & Jane Cowl arrived into Hobart on the 'Caroline' on 2 Feb 1828
* Thomas & Jane Cowl had a son, John 'Robert' Robinson Cowl (was that Jane's maiden name?) born 29 Dec 1828 in Launceston but not registered until 1833. He married in 1851 to Elizabeth Hedington and had about 13 children and they were all written Cowl. He died in 1917
* In Aug 1835 Thomas Cowles was in Bothwell, Tasmania when he was fined 5s for drunkenness
* In the Launceston Advertiser of 8 Oct 1835 it has that Thomas Cowell obtained the license for the Jovial Carpenters, Launceston
* In janilye's list of 2015 it has that on 5 Oct 1836 Jane Cowl obtained the license for the next 12 months
* On 11 Oct 1838 the Hobart Town Courier listed Title Deeds from the Colonial Treasury:- Deeds of Grant in favour of the individuals whose names are hereunder mentioned are now ready to be issued on payment of the amount due thereon to the crown .. Thomas Cowl 1s 9d, Launceston (whatever that means)
* 7 month old Thomas Cowl died 3 Oct 1836 in Launceston and written as "the son of Thomas & Jane Cowl"
