About Thomas Hurst

notes

from an unidentified Geni member

On the My Heritage Web site there are simply dozens of links and lists of children for Jane and John. For Thomas Hurst there seems to four primary ideas concerning his birth. For this part of the tree I have gone with Thomas being Jane and Johns first born child: 1720 to 1817. Perhaps Jane and John had more than one child named Thomas? Other dates for Thomas Hurst are: 1720 to 1789, 1723 to ?, 1737 to ?, 1739 to ?, and 1747 to ? None of the other links had a birth place or death place. Anyone finding some actual proof about Thomas or Thomas's if there is more than one is welcome to change this.
