  • Notes 
    • This might be the Thomas Forte who married an Elizabeth and had Elizabeth in 1651 and Alice in 1653. However, because he would have only been about 17 at the time, I suspect that he was the Thomas who married Thomasine in 1663 instead. (F-472)

      Also note, that we might not know the parents of this Thomas at all. It is possible, but improbable that there was a third Thomas in South Petherton, who did not have a baptismal record. How I have this Thomas connected is theory based on probability at this point. He might be the Thomas who left a will in 1721 in South Petherton, though this is late enough to likely be a generation more recent than the parish records I have copies of.
