Image Thomas Jones gravestone.jpg thumb 300px The gravestone of Thomas Jones in the Scottish Cemetery, Calcutta. Thomas Jones 1810 &ndash 16 September 1849 was a Wales Welsh missionary, best remembered for his work in recording the Khasi language in Roman script. The inscription on his gravestone calls him The founding father of the Khasi alphabets and literature . Jones, a carpenter s son from Montgomeryshire , became a Calvinistic Methodist minister in 1840, and shortly afterwards set out for India with his wife Anne. After their arrival in Calcutta , Anne gave birth to a child, which did not survive. The couple went on into the Khasia Hills, with the aim of converting the native people to Christianity . Thomas Jones succeeeded better than the missionaries that William Carey sent to the hills in the 1830 s. Jones s skills in carpentry and other crafts were valued by the Khasi community, and he learned their language by living among them. He opened a missionary school, and began preaching to the local people in their own language,with such fluency that they could not but marvel. In 1842 he produced a Khasi Reader, and translated a Welsh language work, Rhodd Mam , into Khasi these were the first books written in the Khasi language. He also compiled an alphabet and dictionary. In 1846 Anne Jones died in childbirth, and Thomas Jones married Emma Cattell, an act which got him into trouble with the Missionary Society. as she was only fifteen years old A failed attempt to set up his own mission at Pomreng led to further difficulties with the authorities, who abandoned him in 1847. As a result of his criticisms of a local industrialist, Harry Inglis, he was forced to leave the area, and contracted malaria , of which he died. He is buried in The Scottish Cemetery at Calcutta .
