  • Notes 
    • Lydia Redfin; m. Thomas Bayley 10 Jan 1655/56 at
      New London, CT; 1st husband; m. William Thorne
      1676; 2nd husband

      Thomas Bailey married Lydia Redfield on 10 Jan 1655/56 at New London, New London, CT.

      The "History of New London" source spells the surname as "Bayley". However, Ms Caulkins, puts a footnote at the bottom of the page which states: "His descendants uniformly write the name Bailey."

      Thomas received a lot grant made by Winthrop Plantation in Jan, 1655/56. The History of New London notes on page 290: "The same month (as his marriage) a grant was made to him by the townsmen, 'with the advice and consent of Mr. Winthrop,' of a lot lying north of Mr. Winthrop's land, upon the east side of the river. Relinquishing his house on the town plot, he settled on this grant, which by subsequent additions expanded into a farm."

      Much of the information that concerns the family of Thomas Bailey and Lydia Redfield was obtained from the web page of Donna Beers. She is a Bailey researcher and her page can be found at:
