It might be helpful to investigate the 1629 will, which is given as fact on his profile, but it was proved 24 May 1630 and he is said to have held office in America 1631/1632. The will leaves tobacco to three sons, unnamed, and there are five named daughters but no Priscilla. It also names a Captain Gardner, and witnesses Thomas Williams and Thomas Jones, so it may be possible to find further information. At least some of these children were probably born in England, given the dates. The bequest of tobacco indicates a Virginia connection, so if this is a different person, at least it would be helpful in disentangling the different Thomas Palmers in Virginia.
