It was in 1611 that Jones moved to Rotherhithe on the Southbank of the River Thames in London and by this time he had likely traded the ship Josian for a quarter share in the Mayflower. Rotherhithe was his home until his death in 1622. Over the coming years Jones worked in the wine trade, using the Mayflower to bring wine back from France, Spain, Portugal, and the Canaries, and in the summer of 1620 he and his ship were chartered to undertake the Pilgrim voyage across the Atlantic.
There is a monument to Jones in the grounds of St. Mary’s Church.
