A Joseph Thomas born England died Feb. at Drybread 1868 and buried at Clyde Graveyard aged 54. Described as "Miner" and "Protestant"

This looks a fairly close match.

Thanks Richardcastle.
There are numerous Joseph Thomas folk.
Our research believes he was listed later than 1868 as a missing person.

That leads us more likely to Australia.
