    Notes 
    • He was a Captain in the Colonial service.

      Family tradition says Thomas Noyes was a bachelor into his forties.

      In fact, the street he lived on was called Bachelor Street because this was the street that lead to the 'bachelor's' home.

      Stephen Emery told him that he should be married and told Thomas that he could have his choice of his daughters.

      Thomas chose to marry Mary.
