    2. Barb Chase Thompson, In James Savage's "Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England", vol IV, page296 it states Thruston, Edward, Newport, m. June 1647, Elizabeth, daughter of the first Adam Mott, had Sarah, b. 10 March 1648; Elizabeth Feb. 1650; Edward, i April 1652; Ellen April 1655; Mary Feb 1657; Jonathan 4 January 1659; Daniel April 1661; Rebecca April 1662; John December 1664; Content June 1667; Thomas 8 October 1671. Perhaps his daughter Rebecca became second wife of Weston Clark. He is on the list of freemen 1655, was rep. of providence 1663, but return to Newport. His daughter Elinor m. 1674 George Havens of portsmouth RI. In Vol.III page 247 It states Mott Adam, Hingham, a tailor, from Cambridge England, came in the Defence 1635, aged 39, with wife Sarah, 31, and children John 14, Adam 12, Jonathan 9, Elizabeth 6, and Mary 4; was firt of Roxbury, freeman 25 May 1636; perhaps dissatisfied as a friend of Hutchinson, went 1638 to RI with family there had, perhaps, more children and was with Adam jr, John and Jonathan, perhaps his son lived at Portsmouth, as freeman 1655. Hope this helps you. This is all I could find in the books I have. Virginia Chase [email protected]
