Thomas Kilbourne, Jr.

From http://www.stupakgen.net/Genealogy/Spencer/05632_kilb.htm

5632.3. Thomas Kilbourne {b,c,wc} was born in 1609 in Wood Ditton (Cambridge) England (baptized 30 Nov 1609), and died in England. He married Elizabeth ___ in England. Thomas went to Connecticut in 1634 before the rest of the family to make arrangements for their move. As nothing more is seen of him, it is thought that he returned to England. Jacobus believed that this Thomas stayed in England, and that the Thomas Kilbourn who came to America in 1634 was not related.
