Notes:

Married in St.Pauls Episcopal Church. (not verified)

"Thomas WAS married to a Hannah, but as with his father, I am not sure if she is a first or second wife -- I am reasonably sure he had two. There is no place for a marriage for them and we only know that he was married to her from one record in 1746/7. Children were born to him before that and after that, but no evidence related to her definite surname or her children with Thomas."
(From Alice Echols via email, Oct 1, 2012)

Some researchers have said she was Hannah Morgan, daughter of Edward Morgan (b. Abt 1650 d. Aft 1734) and Margaret Elizabeth Jarman (?) (b. 16 Nov 1691 d. 1730); however there is no substantiation that Hannah was a Morgan, nor is there any substantiation that Edward & Elizabeth had a daughter named Hannah.

The birth order of these children is not necessarily their real birth order. There may have been one more son.
