Note: It looks like St. Stephens Parish in Cecil County, Maryland, is in what is now referred to as the unincorporated area of Earleville, Maryland. I have not used "Earleville" on this record, since it's not a town name, just an unincorporated area.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Thomas by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
Foster-5366 and Foster-4437 appear to represent the same person because: They have nearly the same birth dates, off due to a typographical error, the same wives and the same parents. I could find no source referring to Thomas Foster having a middle name. No sources appeared in the profiles so I sourced this through http://prathergenealogy.com/defaultmain.htm. I'm happy to merge these two if you'll add me to their Trusted Lists. If you prefer to do the merges, I completely understand. Let me know if you need any other details from me. Thanks very much.
