Note: This transcription says that the separate entries in separate church records are for the same Thomas, a child. However, there are future marriage records which likely belong to him. I have identified that this child’s great grandfather Thomas was likely being cared for by his grandsons, John and William. It is likely that he passed away happily after this great-grandson was named for him.
