Thomas and Sarah had 8 children: John, Rebecca, Sarah, John, Hannah, Joseph, Hannah and Elizabeth.
There is now a question of Thomas's death year. I think this is because of the plaque in this same cemetery near the graves of Nancy Shelton Bulkley and others. This plaque says that our Thomas died in 1688 but this must be an error for the following reasons:
In Peter Bulkeley's 1658 will, he mentions his deceased son Thomas. The inventory of our Thomas Bulkeley's estate was dated June 4, 1658. And Thomas's wife, Sarah, is referred to as a widow in her father's 1664 will.
