i've seen several books, one in particular, by a
Robinson wrtten around 1952, that has done a pretty extensive research of the seven generations of the thomas line. but all the books fail to find thomas' birthplace and parents. for years i've had a copy of thomas' and cathern's wedding cert. and have "ment" to write off to london and see if the parents of the bride and groom were mentioned. of course, his father had to be an "andrew". every son for many generations had his fathers' name or an uncles'. i'm from the gov. thomas, thomas, thomas, thomas, joshia, levi, james, albert b., charles h., albert h., albert h. line. yes, i'm the third and yes, there's a forth. when my 2nd great-grandfather died, he left several heirlooms from 1663, 1669, and 1713, to his son frank b. my great-grandfather had died of tb in 1895. when frank b. died in 1949 in
MA, he passed these things to my grandfather living in IL. anywho, thanks for the lead. if i can be of some help in your search, let me know. my stuff is pretty basic and i'm in need of help with james, who left NH to ME around 1800. albert b. was born in vassalboro, ME in 1820. he married abigail a. clark and had charles h. in 1851 in bangor, ME. charles had a sister, ella tolman, who married into the henry m. reed family of benton, ME. this is where i'd like more info about his sister(s) and the reed family. thaks again, al wiggin
