Alias James Thomspon. Executed at Tyburn for breaking transportation. Roughly 37 years old at the time of his death. Born to a respectable family, he was apprenticed to a brazier in Edinburgh, but fled after four years and began living as a criminal, first in Scotland, then in Ireland, and finally in England. Served briefly as a solider in Flanders, before returning to London and earning a living as both brazier and thief. Transported to Virginia after one robbery, he promptly travelled back to England, where he was caught after committing a further robbery.
