Later he worked on the Manawatu-Longburn railway, during its initial construction. He also worked on the building of the Great Northern Railway from Adelaide South. Jonathan farmed at Oroua Bridge (now Rangiotu) from about 1893, until his retirement to Palmerston North. They are both buried at the Kelvin Grove Cemetery in Palmerston North.
