"In-Depth First Settler Profile:
Thomas Stow (1669) / Mary (Griggs) Stow
Name: Thomas Stow
Birth: Baptized April 2, 1615, Biddenden, Kent, England (NEHGSR, vo. 70, p. 347)
Emigration: He landed with his parents in Boston, Mass. on May 17, 1634, "in one of the six ships which arrived during the weel]k of the meeting of the General Court; and settled in Roxbury, Mass. (Macdonough-Hackstaff Ancestry/Macdonough, 1901, p. 338); "John Stow: he arrived at N. E. the 17th of the 3rd month ano. 1634; he brought his wife & 6 children: Thomas, Elizabeth, John, Nathaniel, Samuel, Thankfull" (NEHGSR, vol. 35, p. 244) [Compiler's note: Although Rev. Eliot noted the date the Stow family came to America, no existing ship's passenger list contains their name]; to Braintree, Mass. by 1641; to Concord, Mass. by 1648; to Middletown, Conn. by 1669 (MUH),
Death: February 1683/4, Middletown, Conn. [Compiler's note: Inventory of his estate taken on February 23, 1683/4, MAN vol. 1, p. 369).]
Occupation & Public Service: Unknown
Marriage: m. Mary Griggs/Cragg, December 4, 1639, Roxbury, Mass. (d. August 21, 1680, Middletown, Conn.) She may have been the daughter of Thomas and Mary Griggs of Roxbury, Mass. (Torrey's New England Marriages Prior to 1700; Ancestry of Edward Wales Blake and Clarissa Matilda Glidden/Sumner, 1948) [Compiler's note: "There is no actual proof that Mary, wife of Thomas Stowe, was the daughter of Thomas Griggs, but from her age and residence it is a fair assumption." (NEGHSR, vo. 123, p. 171-1820]
Parents: John Stow (1582-abt. 1654) & Elizabeth Bigge (1590-1638), m. September 13, 1608, Biddenden, Kent, England. (NEHGSR, vo. 70, p. 347): John Stow was admitted a freeman September 3, 1634; was aproprietor at Roxbury, Mass. and a deputy to the Generral Court for two sessions. (NEHGSR, vol. 70, p. 348); John Stow "sold his place at the Metting House Hill, Roxbury, in 1648, to John Pierpont, who married Thankful Stowe about that year. In 1654 the Record of Houses and Lands, Roxbury, lists an estate of 11-1/2 acres belonging to John Pierpont, 'which he enjoyeth as heir to John Stowe his father-in-law, lately deceased." ... He [John Stowe] was also residuary legatee and executor of the will of his mother-in-law, Rachel Bigge, in 1647. This would seem to sispose of the assertion that he was the 'John Ston, an old Kentish Man,' of John Eliot's records, who died in Roxbury, 10-26-1643." (Ancestry of Edward Wales Blake, by Edith Bartlett Sumner, 1948, p. 241).
