Thomas Pryor

Thomas came (emigrated) from London with Rev. John Lathrop and was one of the church of Scituate, 1634. He had lands on the east side of Hicke's Swamp, and probably his house was there. He deceased in 1639. He had a son John in Duxbury, or Plymouth. Daniel purchased Thomas Rose's house in the Two Mile, 1664. There are no children on record. Thomas Pryor's will, 1639, gives "to my son Samuel and Thomas in England" 2d each - to Samuel 5L if he comes to this country. To daughters Elizabeth and Mary 6L each; to John and Daniel the rest of the lands equally. To the pastor (Mr. Lathrop) 10s." His son Thomas, and his grandson Joseph did come to New England.

In 1644, we find that the younger brother, Joseph, brought suit against Daniel and wife Mary to obtain a legacy due him from his father. John was the administrator of the father's will and if John Pryor was then alive the suit would naturally have been against him."[3]
