Notes on Thomas Halsey Jr.
The first record of Thomas is in 1644 when he is included on a whalinglist of Southampton on Long Island. He contributed 2 shillings, 6 pence in February 1656 towards recompensing Mr. Goldsmith for the loss the latter had suffered by fire. In 1657 he was called one of the eastern men, which would seem to indicate that he was living at Mecox. However, maps of Southampton prepared by George Rogers Howell indicate thatThomas Halsey junior lived in Southampton village on the main street and on the west side, near the town pond and between the homes of Thurston and Jonathan Raynor. The property so tentatively described was south of the homestead of his father and on the other side of Horsemill lane.
Thomas was assessed in January 1665 to pay his share of the purchase of Quaquanantuck; was on a list of the town in 1666 and was chosen grand juryman 1 April 1685. He was listed in the estimate of 1683 on a valuation of 411 pounds, 16 shillings and 8 pence.
