Notes
From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Read-160
According to Jonas Reed, in his book written in 1836, "A History of Rutland; Worcester County, Massachusetts, the Read family who came from Sudbury all spelled their name, "Read."
On 10 January 1712, Thomas Read junior, yeoman of Sudbury, bought six acres and 140 acres of land from John Gibbs of Sudbury for seven pounds and ten shillings. The land was situated on the west side of the Sudbury River at a place called Lanham at the west end of the neck, so-called; it was bounded westerly and northerly by lands of Benjamin Waight, Thomas Frost and the said Thomas Read, easterly by land of John Bent, and southerly by marked trees and the mill meadow by the plat of said land (Middlesex County [Mass.] Deeds 17:377, recorded 27 November 1714, on FHL Microfilm 0,554,007).
On 2 November 1713, Thomas Read junior of Sudbury bought land from Joseph Parmenter of Sudbury for six pounds and ten shillings. The land description is in the margin of the deed book and is impossible to read (Middlesex County [Mass.] Deeds 17:378, recorded 27 November 1714, on FHL Microfilm 0,554,007). On 15 June 1719, Thomas Read junior of Sudbury sold land to Joseph Parmenter of Sudbury, with wife Abigail releasing her dower rights (Middlesex Deeds, Vol. 42.138, LDS Microfilm 0,554,024), and mortgaged his farm of 25 acres on 2 September 1740 (Middlesex County [Mass.] Deeds 43.253, on FHL Microfilm 0,554,024).
At the time of the division of the church, Thomas Read Junior was on the list of members on the west side of the river on 18 March 1724/5 when he subscribed in the Church Records (Sudbury Church Records, page 25, on FHL microfilm 0,185,464).
His wife, Abigail, is listed dated 26 May 1728 (page 26). Neither Thomas Read nor his second wife Abigail left a will and no administration was made on their estates in Middlesex County, Massachusetts.
