He married Charity McCain (McKain) ,born 1798. Charity is the daughter of Abel and Mercy McKain of N.Y. state, later of Jackson Michigan. I suspect that Thomas married Charity in or around LeRoy NY. Following is what I know of the children: 1. Harriet b. 1814 NY 2.Marietta b. 1818 NY 3.Diantha b. 1820 NY 4. Eurania b. 1820 NY 5.William Field b. 1823 in NY state, believed to be LeRoy, Genesee co. 6.. Horace Field b. 1827-29, . He was born in Genesee county NY. , 7. Arvilla b. 1831 NY 8.Mary Field b. abt. 1832 NY State 9.Lucy Field b. abt. 1835 in Jackson county Michigan. 10.. Emily Field b .abt. 1836, in Jackson county Michigan 11.Sabra Field b. abt. 1839, in Jackson Co.Michigan 12.Laura b.? Thomas and Charity and family are found throughout Jackson County on the 1800 and 1900.(Charity is thought to be related to McCain faimly that McCain road was named ). Many of the children married in Jackson county. I have more info. and would like to share. Looking for any ties to this family
