General Notes: Husband - Thomas Hamlin


The date of his removal from Barnstable is not known. He made several removals. The date of his death is uncertain.

He was born at Barnstable, Massachusetts. He did not continue to reside in his native place, however, but removed successively to several different localities at dates which are decidedly uncertain. His first removal was with his father to Rochester, Massachusetts, some time before 1729, but there is much confusion concerning his residence in the several places that became his home. He and his wife were original members of the church organized at Wareham, Massachusetts, on Christmas Day, 1739, and on their request were dismissed from there to the church at Sharon, Connecticut, May 30, 1742. We have, however, a petition signed by the inhabitants of Agawam, on April 23, 1739, among whose signatures appear those of Thomas and Isaac Hamlin, praying for the incorporation as a separate town. This petition was granted July 10, of the same year. He also lived on a tract of land across the New York boundary from Sharon, Connecticut. [PAH-NW, 8]
