Fourth Generation


58. Thomas SWIFT (`) (~) was born on 15 November 1687 in Dorchester, Suffolk County, Massachusetts Bay Colony, British Colonial America.2 (The correctness of the placement of Thomas in this family must be researched further. He was not born in the same city as his siblings, and his birth date was in the same month as Joseph. Several LDS Family Search records list his parents as Thomas and Elizabeth Tomson Swift, but that must be verified. The MayflowerFamilies.com website lists Thomas as the only child of Thomas and Elizabeth.

His birth place is also listed in some LDS Family Search records as Weymouth, Norfolk County, MA.)
