  • Notes 
    • Mary Stoddard, had 7 children, Mary (m. Jacob Griswold), Elizabeth (m. John Curtis), Joseph Jr.(m. Mary Dudley), Sarah (m. Guilford (or Steven) Hand) Thomas (Deacon, m. #1 Prudence Deming; m. #2 Abigail Churchill), John (m. Mercy Boardman), Jonathan (m. Hannah Rand or Hannah Ann Hand); Deacon Joseph m.#2 Mercy Stoddard, and had at least 2 children, Benjamin (Deacon, m. Hannah Holmes) and Nathaniel (m. Ann Deming)).(*Note-Researcher Mike Wright tells me there is a dispute if Deacon Joseph Wright is actually the son of Mary Cranbroke. He was supposedly born in Kelvedon Hatch, England but there is no record of his birth there. Thus, they think he may have been born at St. Peter's in South Weald, England, Thomas' father's home parish. It is thought the reason they are in England is that Thomas sent the family back while he went off to reclaim the Wethersfield Settlement in CT from the Indians. That is if Mary did indeed die after 1639. If Mary died in 1636 in Watertown, Middlesex Co., MA, then Thomas must have married Margaret Butler in 1638 and got married in the wilderness of New England and the events were never recorded or recorded and got lost. He then sent his family back to England, where Mary had his son Joseph. It is said she died in Wethersfield, Hartford Co., CT in 1645. By all accounts, Thomas indeed marry again to twice widow Margaret Hillard Elson in 1647.)*(Note- Thomas married again to wife # 3? twice widow Margaret Hillard Elson on May 2, 1647 in Wethersfield, Hartford Co, CT. They had no children together but she had children from her first marriage to Hugh Hilliard and she did make a Will that mentions her Hillard grandchildren. When her son Benjamin Hilliard got into a legal trouble in 1648/9, Thomas stood by him in court like a father figure)
