Question

I

Answer 1

Per the Watertown Free Public Library, there is a memorial indicating Thomas Mayhew's home lot: "Stone on southwest side of Charles River Road: "Here by the ancient ford the landing and the weir was the homestall of Thomas Mayhew, a leader in Watertown affairs from 1635 to 1645. Afterwards with his son the Rev. Thomas Mayhew, he labored among the Indians at Martha's Vineyard." Thomas Mayhew, the father was the owner of the grist mill and a merchant. He owned 150 acres on the south side of the Charles River. Thomas Mayhew, the son, was a scholar and soon after moving to Martha's Vineyard, preached to the Indians. After his drowning, his father and sons took over the religious teachings. Thomas Mayhew, the father, built the first bridge over the Charles River - it was a foot bridge."  Another site comments that this is about 200 yards east of Watertown Square along bankside Charles River Road.

There is a marker of Thomas Mayhew Jr.   According to Insider's Guide to Martha's Vineyard by Polly Burroughs:  "Begin at Memorial Park on Upper Main Street on the outskirts of Edgartown, where Edgartown-West Tisbury Road is clearly marked on the signs...  Four and a half miles from Edgartown, on the left, is the Place on the Wayside, a stone marker in memory of Thomas Mayhew Jr., who often preached here to the Native Americans and was lost at sea at a young age."

Answer 3

According to research librarian at Martha's Vineyard Museum...

Thomas Mayhew, Sr. spent his last years in a house (built in the late 1600s and demolished in 1909) that stood approximately where the  "Mayhew Parsonage" (75 South Water Street--on the water side, just beyond Cooke Street--in Edgartown) is today. It's believed that eight members of the Mayhew family were buried on the grounds of the "Old Mayhew House":

• Thomas Mayhew Sr., his [second] wife Jane, and their daughter Hannah
• Matthew Mayhew, Thomas Sr.'s grandson and heir to the Old Mayhew House, and his wife Mary
• Matthew Mayhew, Jr. [Matthew's son, Thomas Sr.'s great-grandson] and his wife Anna
• Matthew Mayhew III

The graves of the last three -- Matthew Jr., Anna, and Matthew III -- are marked by black slate headstones that are visible from the sidewalk in front of 75 South Water Street. They are tucked into the bushes, close to the front of the house. A small bronze plaque at the edge of the lawn calls attention to them, as does a sign in the garden with a polite request not to trespass.

The graves of the elder Mayhews, the markers for which probably disappeared before the mid-19C, are almost certainly nearby; probably under the front lawn of the house. Tradition has it that Thomas Sr.'s grave is marked by a granite boulder that protrudes from the grass near the sidewalk.
