Notes for THOMAS KILBOURNE:
9/92 Name from the Abridged Compendum of American Genealogy.
12/92, from the book "Genealogical Dictionary of New England" by Savage.
Vol. II, page 20; Kilbourne, Thomas, Weathersfield, from Wood Ditton, in County
Cambridge, England. Came to Boston in the increase, 1635, aged 55, with wife
Frances, 50; and child Margaret, 23, as the custom-house record imports, but
she was baptized 23 Sept. 1607; Lydia, 22, but baptized 14 July 1616, and that
age might have suited better an elder sister Elizabeth baptized 12 May 1614,
who did not come; Mary, 16; Frances 12, baptized 4 Sept. 1621; and John 10,
baptized 29 Sept. 1624. He died before 25 Dec. 1640, when mentioned of the lands of Frances the widow is found. She died Nov. 1650. Margaret married Richard Law, the grandfather of Gov. Law; Lydia married Robert Haywood or Howard of Windsor; Mary married John Root; and Frances married Thomas Uffoot; and the three first mentioned had children, but the last none. To the diligent fondness of Payne Kenyon K. of Litchfield, Esquire in 1847, were we indebted for a copious memory of predecessors and descendents in 140 pages, which is multiplied threefold in 1856.
