Biography

Joanna's origins are unknown. She has been shown with the last name at birth of Davis, but no sources support this name.

Joanna and her spouse, David Thomas came from Salem to Middleboro, Massachusetts, soon after 1668 when he sold his land in Salem. They lived in Thomastown. They had several children: David, Joanna, William, Jeremiah, and Edward. Edward was the first birth recorded in the town.[1]

David and Joanna Thomas' daughter, Joanna, married Joseph Vaughan May 7, 1680 at Middleborough.[2]

When the inventory of her husband, David Thomas, Sr., of Middlebury was taken on Sept 21, 1689, his wife, Joanna was named Administrator, with sons David and Jeremiah acting as sureties.[3]

Joanna Thomas' death information has not been found.

Davis-41356 and Unknown-407333 do not represent the same person because: It appears the correct merge should be with Davis-1089.
Davis-41356 and Unknown-407333 appear to represent the same person because: No sources have been found for the last name at birth of Davis. The vitals on -41356 belong to a different Joanna (Davis) who married two men other than David Thomas. Son, David on -41356 is correct for David Thomas and Joanna Unknown, and Joanna and William are siblings of David based on sources in -407333. Please merge to Unknown-407333

Davis-41356 and Davis-5125 are not ready to be merged because: More work needed to determine if this merge would be correct ... also many problems with the connected profiles.
Davis-41356 and Davis-5125 appear to represent the same person because: these two appear to be a match, dates and loc's need to be researched and settled
