Working on correcting these pre-1700 Thames ancestors. These older names were added based on an unsourced book published 2002 where the author often intentionally changed the non-"Thames" surname spellings to read "Thames" to build a lineage, no matter how incorrect it may be. No evidence of these family relationships have been found. I'm working on trying to verify these people outside of the incidental records that do not contain family relationships - simply migration records, business license records, etc. Because the author did not use the spelling contained in the original record, it's very difficult to verify the information.
