The death date here is incorrect. Thomas's will was brought to Essex Co., MA, probate court on 2 October 1749. He was "late of Wenham." The death date given above should say "before" this date. I see nothing to suggest he died in Maine. I think someone was confused here.

Perkins-7001 and Perkins-5664 appear to represent the same person because: They have the same name, their wives have the same names, they have the same date of death and similar date of birth.
