Biography
From “Richard COMBS I of Hempstead, Queens Co, Long Island, NY” (document attached)
Thomas I (Richard1), Carpenter, was born aft 1662 (not on 1683 Hempstead Rolls), and before 1678 (presumably an adult by 1698), probably in Hempstead, Queens Co, NY; d testate 1723-1724, Freehold, Monmouth Co, NJ; was probably married twice, (1) bef 1703, her name not yet unknown; the last, Elizabeth, before 1714. Elizabeth's surname is unknown (but said by some to have been a SEAMON, their sources unknown). Thomas was probably already a resident of Freehold in 1698 when his name is missing from the Hempstead census, but the first record of him in that county thus far is not until 1706 when Thomas COMES of Freehold cedes his interest in Hempstead land, for £50 in money and land, to John COMES of Madnans Neck, Hempstead, apparently his brother, said document also referencing the "thirds" (widow's dower rights) of his mother, Elizabeth. In 1711, Richard COMES, also of Madnans Neck, and believed to have been Thomas' brother, deeded land to Thomas in Freehold which Richard had acquired in 1700.
According to Thomas' will, his children were:
Probably by his first wife:
- Robert II (of age by 1723, thus born pre-1703)
- Rachel (either of age or married by 1723)
Probably by his last wife, Elizabeth (all still minors in 1723):
- Thomas
- Joseph
- Jonathan
- John
- Elizabeth

To:
I am a descendant of the Jonathan Hampton mentioned in a later will. Do you
by any chance have any further information on that will. I am also
researching whether this Elizabeth Hamtpon was Jonathan's daughter or
sister. Any assistance will be most appreciated and I will gladly share any
information I develope.
Thank you, Karl
Title: Suggested by research of wills & family given names in Monmouth Co, NJ
Text: Solomon Seamon died in 1703, Elizabeth was the correct age and the name Solomon appears in her descendants. Another possibile father of
Elizabeth is Jonathan Hampton, executor of Thomas' will was related. Jonathan hampton mentions daughter Elizabeth and son-in-law Thomas Combs in his will later of Monmouth Co, NJ
