Sue, for now I've disconnected Agnes Old as the mother of immigrant Thomas. More research is needed. But there is a burial for John Blisse h/o Agnes at Stowe Nine Churches in 1631/2 which suggests he wasn't the John who died in 1617. If there are two John's it may be hard to say which one is the father of Thomas of Daventry.
