Note

Carole Partridge 10:27, 27 September 2016 (EDT). I merged the profile for non-existent William Wight into this profile. The data section showed William's estimated birth year as 1635 in England, 4 years after his death date in Medfield, Massachusetts, which didn't exist yet. The tree William's profile was created from has been deleted from Ancestry, and no published bio of the family lists William among Thomas' children. Additionally, I could not find evidence of anyone with a similar name to William's who was born or died in Dedham, Massachusetts, (the town Medfield was created from) through 1660.
