Died in Scituate 24 September 1691.
MARRIAGES: (1) By 1639 Sarah _____. She died at Scituate on 6 June 1652.
(2) Scituate 31 March 1653 Jane (Young) Hatch, widow of WILLIAM HATCH {1635, Scituate}. She died at Scituate on 8 October 1653.
(3) By an unknown date Anne _____. She married (2) at Scituate on 3 August 1702 Abraham Suttliff. (The bride's surname is not given in this marriage record, but, in his will of 5 November 1711, Thomas King, son of the immigrant, made provisions for "my mother-in-law Anne Suttlife."
Thomas King came to New England on the same vessel as WILLIAM VASSALL {1630, Boston} [GMB 3:1871-75], with whom he was closely associated in New England. Vassall's wife was Anna King of Cold Norton, Essex, daughter of George King, indicating that the Thomas King baptized at Cold Norton on 24 February 1613[/4?] was the immigrant. Also on the same vessel with Vassall and Thomas King in 1635 was "Suzan King," aged 30, presumably also a close relation of Thomas. (The will of George King, father of Anne (King) Vassall, names a son Thomas, but this Thomas would appear to be too old to be the subject of this sketch.
His grave was discovered in the Second Church Graveyard in Norwell, MA, just over the border from Scituate. "Historia: A magazine of Local History" in Norwell MA in November 1898.
