• Notes

  A 1655 list of the freeman in the colony contains his name in the town of Providence. However, given his involvement in town affairs, he must have been a freeman earlier. Thomas held several offices in the government of Providence: Surveyor, Providence 1650. Commissioner from Providence to the General Assembly of Providence Plantations: chosen in 1650, 1652 and 1653 Trier of Cases or Juryman: 1650, 1652, 1655, 1656, and 1659 in Providence. Constable, Providence, "for denomination" 19 June 1656. He was serving as constable during the trial of Richard Cashmor. After King Philips War, he served on a committee 14 Aug 1676, "that recommended certain conditions under which the Indian captives should be disposed of by the town. They were to be in servitude for terms of years."
