Issue- all children bpt. at St. James, Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk- listed in the registers as children of Thomas, except John and Thomas II who were listed as children of Thomas and Elizabeth and Theodore who is listed as son of Thomas and Abigail. I suspect the first five children are by Elizabeth and the last four by Abigail, the mother of Sarah is uncertain, but she was probably the child of Elizabeth.
