A baptismal record was found for a Jones Bonds, son of Joseph (father) Bonds and Thomas (Bonds) [likely a transcription error; the record is very difficult to decipher], who was baptized in Dymock, Gloucestershire, England on July 2, 1563. I don't know if this record is for this Jonas though.

Jonas married Rose Woode, daughter of George Woode & Katherin Buttall, at Rattlesden, Suffolk, England on June 23, 1588. They moved to Bury St. Edmunds about 1591, prior to the birth of his third son, who was baptized there. He owned property at Haughley and at Woolpit, near the parish of Rattlesden, Suffolk. In his will he names Hester Woode as unmarried sister of his wife.

Children: Oliver; John the Elder; John the Younger; Bartholomew; William; Thomas; Elizabeth & Margaret.
