Thomas Butler was born about 1637 at Hartford, Connecticut, the elder son of Deacon Richard Butler and his first wife Elizabeth[4][5]. His father, Richard, was 27 and his mother, Elizabeth, was 23
Married to Sarah Stone, daughter of Rev. Samuel Stone about 1657 / 1658 at Hartford, Connecticut.[6]
The number of children credited to Thomas and Sarah varies from 11 and up to 22. Wethersfield town records report 11 children,[7] while Barbour, using the records from the First Church reports 13, then continues on that Thomas left 4 sons and 8 daughters though none of the listed children appear to predesease him.[8] The confusion may arise from mingling the children of Thomas and Sarah with those of his son Thomas, producing higher numbers.
