Note	BIRTH and DEATH: Barbour Collection of Farmington Vital Records, F.H.L. book 974.6 V2w1, Vol 12, p. 314. In both records he is listed as "Thomas son of Robberd/Robert." Thomas is named as the son of Robert in Church Communion. Farmington, 1680, NEHGS Register, Vol. 12 p. 36. BAPTISM: "Vital Records of Farmington in Connecticut," N.E.G.H.R. Vol. 11, p. 325, FHL book 974 B2ne, Vol 11. (Thomas Porter, 7 years old, baptized October 29, 1657." (Son of Robert Porter) "The only son of Robert who left descendants" ("Some Descendants of Robert Porter with Female Lines, Farmington, Connecticut 1640," Compiled by Margaret Porter Miller, p. 3.) FARMINGTON: "Abigail Porter, wife of Thomas," received church communion, Farmington, 1691. (N.E.H.G.R, Vol. 12, p. 37, FHL book 974 B2ne Vol. 12.) Thomas, son of Robert Porter, joined in full Communion here, August 13, 1682. "Church Records of Farmington in Connecticut," N.E.G.H.R. Vol. 12, p. 36, FHL book 974 B2ne, Vol 12. He was executor of his father's will, and the only surviving son and principal heir. He was a tailor by trade, lived in Farmington, and died (there) in 1719." (The History of Waterbury, by Henry Bronson, FHL film 599,254, item 1, p. 175.) OCCUPATION: "Known as Deacon. He was a weaver and a tailor." He "continued the business of his brother John, who died ae. 23." ("Some Descendants of Robert Porter with Female Lines, Farmington, Connecticut 1640," Compiled by Margaret Porter Miller, p.2, 3.) PROBATE: Connecticut Probate Vol 3 "Thomas Porter of Farmington, Jan. 1718." Wife Abigail; sons are Robert, Benjamin, William. Daughter Elizabeth is 16 years old. Also named Timothy, Nathaniel and Deacon Porter. Farmington was settled in 1640 by Hartford citizens. Two of the first settlers were Robert Porter and his son Thomas. Southington Parish in Farmington was settled by Robert's brother Daniel Porter and his son Daniel and William Porter. (Farmington in Connecticut, by Christopher P. Bickford, FHL book 974.62/F1/H2b.) In 1732 it was agreed to separate Farmington from Waterbury, possibly the reason Thomas ended up in Farmington and his brothers in Waterbury.
