Thomas Rogers who died in Plymouth during the first winter was married to Alice Cosford but I am seeing records that suggest he had two other spouses. They were named Grace Ravens and Grace Makin. Can these names be proved. Alice Cosford is proved as his wife by GSMD. The others are suspect.

There are two Thomas Rogers who are often confused in dodgy internet trees.

Thomas Rogers of the Mayflower married Alice Cosford. 
Thomas Rogers who lived in Watertown married Grace (Ravens) Porter.

The General Society of Mayflower Descendants has proved the Thomas Rogers who was married to Alice Cosford. He had no other spouses. There is another Thomas Rogers who married a Grace Ravens and a Grace Makin but he did not live in Plymouth as far as I know.  The Thomas Rogers who sailed on the Mayflower (my 9th ggf) died the first winter and is buried in Plymouth. He sailed with his elder son Joseph who is buried in Eastham. Joseph's brother John arrived in Plymouth around 1630 and lived in Duxbury.
