Burial: As Thomas was living in New Haven, Connecticut, and passing away before 1820, he is buried in what is now the New Haven Green. The green and the vast surrounding area were the towns original cemetery. It was in the center of town. When they decided to use the cemetery as a central meeting place…all of the stones were removed and a meeting house was errected…and eventually over the years 3 churches were built. Some of the stones are in a memorial in the center church, some were propped up against the back wall of the new cemetery which is located on the outskirts of town…The Grove Street Cemetery…but most of the stones were destroyed and used to build local stone walls etc. None of the interred were relocated and all remain buried in the New Haven Green. Occasionally after a bad storm skeletal remains are pushed up out of the ground when trees fall or when they are doing excavation or building in the surrounding area…fully covered by the media each time. The green was the main cemetery for about 200 years and there could be up to or more than 12,000 of our ancestors buried there.
