The known
baptisms of Thomas-9's children occurred between 1687 and 1697. It is probable therefore that he was born
between 1650 and 1670 but could be earlier.
Possible baptisms from the London IGI are:
C
6Oct1633 s Thomas & Ellen, St Dunstan 54/64 yrs at C of children
C
8May1649 s Dudlea & Susanna, Allhallows Honey Lane, 38/48
C 27May1652 s Ringen & Elizabeth, St
Dunstan 35/45
C
3Aug1656 s Peter & Bridgett, St Mary Abchurch 31/41
C 21Sep1666 s Leonard & Mary, St
Bartholomew the Gt 21/31
C 26Sep1669 s Tho & Susan, St Giles
Cripplegate 18/28
C 26Oct1677 s Tho & Susan, St Giles
Cripplegate 10/20
only the
Ringen entry examined so far along with one other Ringen SHORT found in IGI:
C 10Mar1650 Jane d Ringing SHORT of
Kingstreet, mariner, & Elizabeth uxor, 7 days
C 27May1652 Thomas s Ringen ?HORT of Foxes
Lane mariner & Elizabeth uxor, 1 day
Writing in
register is very clear except for initial letter of SHORT in 1652; no other
Ringen found in IGI; possibly a foreign mariner with a name anglicised to
SHORT? St Dunstan m index 1568-1696 had
no Ringen marriage
No obvious
choice at present; the Thomas/Ellen baptism looks interesting, as there could
be a generation missed in the interregnum; IGI has one other C to them:
C23Aug1635 Jonathon at St Dunstan. The
Thomas/Susan baptism can probably be eliminated as the first child Thomas
probably died before the baptism of a second Thomas in 1677.
The Hearth
Tax for Tower Hamlets (undated c1670) lists a Thomas SHORTE with 9 hearths at
Christopher Alley. This number of
hearths indicates a relatively wealthy man so perhaps not a young one; maybe he
is the Thomas married to Ellen aged around 60; alternatively he may be the son
of Thomas & Ellen baptised in 1633 so aged about 40 in the hearth tax list and
possibly the father of Thomas-9
Boyd’s
Inhabitants of London lists a Thomas SHORT, citizen and clothworker, with a son
Thomas The reference is to a 1669 PCC
will, 63, but the parish is St Saviours Southwark. The will has not yet been examined
It is
presently assumed that Thomas-8 was baptised at St Dunstan in 1691, son of
Thomas, weaver of Pettycoat Lane and Jane. Other baptisms to Thomas and Jane
have been found starting in 1687, no suitable m of Thomas & Jane found in
St Dunstan m index, but there is one suitable m in IGI:
m
7Jul1686 Thomas SHORT & Jane WALBECK at Allhallows London Wall
the name
and date suggests that this is the correct marriage, but the register has not
yet been examined
C 18Mar1687 Martha d Thomas & Jane SHORT, weaver,
Nicholas St, ? days old
C
9Mar1689 Elizabeth d Thomas & Jane SHORT, weaver, Phenix St, 16?
days old
C
6Dec1691 Thomas s Thomas &
Jane SHORT, weaver, Pettycoat Lane, weaver ? days old
C
2Dec1694 William s Thomas &
Jane SHORT, weaver, Pellam St, 12 days old
C 16Dec1697 Jane d Thomas & Jane SHORT, weaver, Pellam St, 1 day
C 19Jun1701 Rebecca d Thomas & Jane SHORT [from IGI only]
these all
found from IGI and checked on original register except for Rebecca; no
St.Dunstan C index for this period
not
found; too many burials at St
Dunstan to search for Thomas or Jane and ages at burial not given until 1811
