Biography

THOMAS SHERWOOD married first Alice, whose last name is unknown. Her surname is sometimes given as Seabrook.

In April, 1634, THOMAS, age 43, with his wife Alice, age 47, and children, Anna (14), Rose (11), Thomas (10), Rebecca (9) sailed from Ipswich, Suffolk, England, on the ship Frances, arriving in Boston, Suffolk, MA. He moved to Wethersfield, Hartford, CT, in 1635, along with the first settlers of that town. He was a carpenter by trade. From there he moved to Stamford, Greenwich, CT, and in 1648, sold his land in Stamford and moved to Fairfield, Fairfield, CT.

THOMAS married second MARY, whose surname is also unknown. She is sometimes called Mary Fitch, but that is actually his son's wife. His will dated July 21, 1655, and proved Oct. 25, 1655, differentiates between the children born by his first wife, Alice, and his second wife, MARY.

His widow, MARY, married John Banks, who was prominent in Fairfield and Rye, Westchester, NY, and she survived him, dying in 1694 in Rye.
