    Gender Male 
    Notes 
    • BIRTH: No birth/chr found. Thomas's birth is proved by the deposition of John Griswold and George Griswold, sons of George, and grandsons of Edward Griswold, the immigrant, Thomas's brother, dated 19 Jan 1737/8, in which it is stated that their grandfather Edward was the eldest of three brothers. The other brothers were Matthew and Thomas. Thomas was the youngest (Edward E. Salisbury and Evelyn McCurdy Salisbury, FAMILY HISTORIES AND GENEALOGIES, 3 vols. [Privately printed, 1892], 2:5 [FHL #873825]). Matthew testified in 1684 that he was about 64 years old (Connecticut Archives, "Private Controversies," 2:204, cited in Salisbury, FAMILY HISTORIES, 2:3). Hence, Matthew was born after the death of the first wife, and Thomas was younger still. The deposition of George Griswold, nephew of Thomas, dated 9 May 1700, states that as a youth he lived in Kenilworth, Warws with his father Edward Griswold in a house which belonged to his uncle Matthew Griswold and that the house became the property of Thomas Griswold (Matthew Griswold estate papers, New London District Probate Files, #2333 [FHL #1025021]). No further record of Thomas.
