General Notes

b.   Wymondham, Norfolk, Eng. Thomas "husbandman" died at .36 Occupation: husbandman.

"Thomas, styled 'the husbandman,' and bro. of Stephen Lincoln, came from Wymondham in the County of Norfolk, Eng., and settled in our Hing. in the autumn of 1638. His name frequently occurs upon the early rec's of the town, and in every instance he is distinguished from the other Thomases by his occupation. His conveyances and titles to property acquired either by grant or purchase, also afford evidence of his vocation in life. None of his descendants bearing the surname in the male line reside in Hing. at the present [1923] time. They are, however, quite numerous throughout New Englane, and not difficult to connect with those who removed into Worcester County, and to the State of Maine."36

Thomas "resided on Fort Hill St., "on the upland by the highway side going to Weymouth mill.
