Lt. Thomas Bancroft - Wives of Thomas Bancroft?

I'll take another look... but it will have to wait 'til tomorrow..

/this question of 2 Thomas Bancrofts is exactly mine! My ancestor Thomas Bancroft married Alice Bacon who died (probably in childbirth) and then Elizabeth Metcalf. When and how did he arrive in the Colonies? Any thoughts/leads? Thanks

Private User Can you take another look at this family ?

John Bancroft & his wife Jane have too many children.

There were two Thomas Bancrofts - one of Lynn, MA and another of Springfield MA & Enfield CT. The first Thomas of Lynn married Alice Bacon & 2nd Elizabeth Metcalf. The second Thomas married first Margaret Wright and 2nd Hannah (possibly Gardner).

According to "Data concerning the families of Bancroft, Bradstreet, Browne, Dudley, Emerson, Gamble, Goodridge, Gould, Hartshorne, Hobson, Kemp, Kendall, Metcalf, Nichols, Parker, Poole, Sawtell, Wainwright, Woodman, etc. in England and America, 1277 to 1906 A.D.",
~ the Thomas Bancroft of Lynn, MA who married Alice Bacon and 2nd Elizabeth Metcalf is the son of Ralph Bancroft (brother of John Bancroft d. 1637). This makes Thomas Bancroft of Lynn, MA a cousin to Thomas Bancroft who died at Springfield, MA.
