THOMAS, Watertown, arrived from Virginia, whither he came from London, May 1635, in the Plain Joan, bringing children, perhaps Thomas, said to have been born 2 May 1625; Nicholas; and Susanna (of whom the former two died young), was made freeman of Mass. 13 May 1640, married I suppose for second wife Phebe, daughter of the first George Parkhurst, had Ichabod, born 1 Mar 1641; Richard, 22 Mar 1643; John, 19 Feb 1648; Ebenezer, 17 June 1651; after being fined once for neglecting the law of baptism and twice for neglect of public worship, with increasing weight, and his daughter Susanna having married 7 Apr 1654 John Farnum of Boston, who favored the Baptist views of ordinances, he was driven to Providence, lived in that part now Smithfield, swore allegiance 1666, and died Sept 1674. He had been baptized 18 Apr 1599.197, v1p66
The first notice that I find of this man is Jan. 6, 1634. (See N.E. Reg., Vol XIV, p. 347.) He was then 18 years of age. His first settlement in Rhode Island was at Providence. He afterward settled in the valley of the Moshassuck, near the lower Quaker Meeting-house. (See History.) His estate was divided by the Council between his widow and his 5 remaining children.82 |
