| Notes |
- BIRTH: Date and place of birth are approximations. Although Thomas's birth date is frequently set at 1620, it seems likely that he was older. In a Connecticut court rec, dated 5 Apr 1638, he is mentioned as one of six men chosen to treat with the Indians at "Warranocke" [Westfield area]. It seems unlikely that an 18-year-old would have been chosen for this assignment (J. H. Trumbull and Charles J. Hoadly, eds, THE PUBLIC RECORDS OF THE COLONY OF CONNECTICUT, 15 vols. [Hartford, 1850-90], 1:17 [FHL #974.6 N2c]). Wales is the traditional birthplace of Thomas Merrick, but no documentation has been found. See Thomas B. Warren, "Springfield Families" (typescript, 1935; Conn. Valley Historical Museum, Springfield, Mass.), 457 (FHL #014787). Also see George Byron Merrick, GENEALOGY OF THE MERRICK-MIRICK-MYRICK FAMILY (Madison, WI, 1902), 266 (FHL #1034023 it 2).
MAR #1: Springfield Vital Records, 1:13 (FHL #185414).
MAR #2: Ibid.
DEATH: Ibid, 1:98.
OCC: Husbandman, carter, riverboatman, sergeant in militia.
