    • Elizabeth named as mother in some of the children's baptisms: John and Thomas, no mother named for Elizabeth and Henry and latter. Since there is no evidence of a death of an Elizabeth and a remarriage of Thomas during the period during which Thomas's children were born, but there is the burial of an Elizabeth, wife of Thomas, some years later, it seems that they were all the children of Elizabeth.
