, d. Aft 1787 (Age ~ 68 years) Married 28 Jun 1740 St. Mary’s Church, Nackington, Kent, England
- Hasted described the Thomas with the table tomb in Petham as the father of the Mary who married Hopkins Fox, and having seen the tomb for myself I can just about read that Thomas died leaving one son and one daughter, the latter named on the tomb as "Mary Wife of Hopkins Fox of Nackington".
