Geschiedenis
Jenkins Jones became a lieutenant in 1813 and a commander in 1816, being appointed to the JULIA. She was wrecked on the island of Tristan da Cunha in 1817 but Jones was acquitted at the subsequent court martial. From 1822 to 1824 he commanded the SAPPHO on the Cork Station and in 1828 the GLOUCESTER. Soon after, however, he was promoted captain into the ROYAL ADELAIDE but remained on half-pay until he took command of the CURACOA in 1839, on the South American Station, remaining there until 1842.
