THE THOMAS FAMILIES. - THREE BRANCHES.


There seem to have been three distinet branches of the Thomas fam- ily in Sanbornton which were but distautly related to each other.


I.


1. JONATHAN THOMAS, probably the oldest and earliest settler of the name, is said to have been a great hunter, and accustomed to pass his winters in the " upper country " in that capacity. His first res- idence in S. was in the present pasture of Joshua Lane, east of the Square (Site No. 1, Lot 40, 1st Div.), now visible in depression of the land overlooking the brook that has since goue by his name, - "Thomas Brook." He located, secoud, just below the present John Perkins place (Site 2, Lot 51, 1st Div.) ; thirdly, on the old Aaron Hill place (1774), towards Bay Bridge ; his final home, in town, was the late Capt. Jacob Philbrick's, near the Bay, above Union Bridge, whence he rem. to Canada, and was last heard of as a " scout" (?) (hunter) through the woods of Maine. Children :


2. JONATHAN, Jr , was corporal in Capt. Jeremlah Clough's company, and heuce among the carllest Sauboruton men who started for the seat of war just after the battle of Bunker IIIII. He continued in the service till 1781, but soou after left towu for parts nuknown.

Y., and there d., ae. about 76. He had also been in the Revolutiony war, and was, for many years, inordinately addicted to strong drink, but after- wards became a truly reformed and pious man. She d. June 7, 1850, ae. 86 (?). We have scarcely more than the names and doubtful or- der of their children, as follows :

39. BENJAMIN C.3 [30] (Joseph2, Joseph1). During his minority he went to Boston, Mass., and engaged in a mechanical employment ; was led, providentially, of a Sabbath morning, to attend public re- ligions services with the Baldwin Place Baptist congregation. His attention was arrested ; and, giving evidence of a saving change, he afterwards united with that church, Rev. Baron Stowe, pastor, Oct. 28, 1838. His dormant energies were forthwith aroused, and he speedily began to display those true qualities of a missionary, - a burn- ing heart, inventive taet, and determined will. He was one of sixteen to form the Harvard Street Baptist Church, Boston, with which he proved a faithful worker, and continued connected for eleven years. Fitted for college at the Worcester Academy, grad. at Brown Univer- sity in 1847, and completed a-regular course at the Newton Theologi- eal Seminary, 1850. IIe in. Charlotte, dan. of Origen Bachelder, of Boston, Sept., 1850, and. Oet. 12, was ordained as missionary to the Karens, - the snecessor of Boardman, - Dr. Stowe preaching the sermon from Luke iv. 12; embarked four days later for Calcutta, India, and reached his field of labor, Tavoy, May 1, 1851, where he labored successfully three and a half years. In 1854 he commenced in a new missionary field - purely heathen before, dark and forbidding - at Henthada, twenty miles north of Rangoon. He left, as the result of twelve years' active evangelism, an association of sixty churches, 2,000 living members, seventy Karen preachers, nine of whom he or- dained himself, seventy ont-stations, and one normal and forty-five primary schools. Early in 1867 he was assigned to the province of Bassien, and was laboring with his characteristic earnestness, and un- der that motive-power which had always impelled him, - the love of Christ ; but in less than a year it was manifest, from his shattered

constitution and failing health, that he must leave Burinab for Lis native shores, which he did by the overland route, arriving in New York June 8, 1868, just in season to die, June 11, ac. 48-2. Ilis funeral was attended in Boston a few days later, at the Harvard Street Baptist house, the sermon being preached by his old pastor, giving a sketch of his life, as above, followed by carnest and appropriate ad- dresses from Drs. Haswell and Warren, and a poem written by Heury S. Washburn, Esq. (an early friend and associate), on first hearing of his death. (The above is condensed from the Watchman and Re- jlector, of June 25 and July 2, 1868.) Ilis widow has since returned to the(ir) missionary work. Children :
