There are crew lists for the Ship at the National Archives. Not online though - you would have to go there or get someone to go for you

The list was a crew list but I think you're right, it was a list as of 1912 when the Titanic sunk

There is an Able Seaman on the 1911 census, with the name John James Jones

Gins, I think that list is just for the voyage when the Carpathia went to the aid of the Titanic and not all its voyages.

Having browsed through some of the images on Ancestry, I think they are only passenger lists and do not include crew.

Just using the parameters of Jones and Carpathia, there are 121,018 pages of results, with 20 names to a page. Thats only on the UK incoming lists :-(

"Carpathia made her maiden voyage on 5 May 1903 from Liverpool, England, to Boston, USA, and ran services between New York City, Gibraltar, Genova, Naples, Trieste and Fiume."

(Wikipedia)

Ancestry does hold manifest for both UK arrivals, and USA ones, but with a surname like Jones (first names uncertain) it could take an awful lot of searching!
