There seems to be no actual evidence as to his parents and origins. He was a freeman, April 1, 1679, and a soldier in King Philip's War, 1676. He worked as a tailor. In fact he would have had to have been born before Obediah was married.
KING PHILIP'S WAR VETERAN
Thomas was said to be the son of Obediah and Anna (Swift) Read. He married Hannah Blanchard.
