Thomas died on 22 May 1931, aged 51 years, in Swansea, Wales, United Kingdom. His death certificate states: Complications after an amputation (from right thigh), after an accidental fall from roof whilst following his employment. He was burried at Llanfair Church - Eglwys Llanfair Cemetery in Cwmgors, Neath Port Talbot, Wales, United Kingdom.
