Lloyd Vernon Briggs' collection of Massachusetts family records

The Thomas Family collection consists of numerous pages of excerpts copied from the Massachusetts archives, muster and pay rolls, town rolls, and bounty receipts. Birth, marriage, and death notices from church records are also included.

The families mentioned are: the Thomas family, and the Otis, Stetson (Stedson), Damon, Cushing, and Briggs families. They were prominent in Plymouth County, New England during the 18th and 19th centuries.

These notes were possibly compiled for genealogical purposes. They have been sorted according to the family primarily treated. However, it appears that all of the families were inter-related by marriage.

Note: With the exception of a few items, the dates in this collection indicate the date span of the material, not the date of creation.
