Thomas Stanton
Cal 1609 - 1677 (~ 68 years)
Page 277 of Visitation of the County of Warwick in 1619, Taken by William Camden Clarencieux, King of Arms; Harleian Miscellany 55-1167, Ed. by John Fetherstone, F.S.A.; London: 1877; Vol. XII of Harleian Miscellany Soc'y, est. 1869.
1. Thomas Stanton de Longbridg, County Warwick, whose son,
2. John, m. Elizabeth filia Townsend de Wallis.
5. Their son, Thomas, 2d filius de Woolverton, m. Maria seniora George Pudsey, in Langley, in County Warwick.
10. Thomas, fil. et haeres bap. 1619, age 24, m. Katherine Washington (July 30, 1616), filia Walteri Washington de Radway, in County Warwick. Children:
Thomas fil et haeres, age 3, 1619, (son and heir).
Alicia age 6 diurnum, 1610, Sept. 3
From "Alumni Oxonienses, 1500-1714" (page 1412), by Joseph Foster, it appears that the Thomas Stanton who was in his 24th year in 1619 had previously been a student at Oxford, and that his son, Thomas, Jr., and grandson Thomas, subsequently became students:
Stanton, Thomas, of co. Warwick, arm. St. John's Coll., matric. 25 Jan 1610/11, aged 15, of Wolverton; father of the next.
Stanton, Thomas (Staunton), 1 son of Thomas, of Wolverton, co. Warwick, arm. University Coll., matric. 11 Jul 1634, aged 17; father of Thomas 1664.
Stanton, Thomas, son of Tho., of Wolverton, co. Warwick, gent. St. Edmund Hall, matric. 13 Jul 1664, aged 17.
Additional information concerning the Stanton or Staunton family of Longbridge is found in "A Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland" (vol. 2, p. 588), by John Burke. In part, the line was as follows:
John Staunton, of Longbridge, who m. Elizabeth, daughter of Townesend of Wales, and had issue,
I. Thomas, his successor of Longbridge, m. Alice_________and left one son and four daughters.
II. Thomas, bearing the same name as his elder brother, and is described as "an ancient captaine in the Irish wars." He purchased, in the 18th Elizabeth, the manor and advowson of Wolverton, in the county of Warwick. He m. first, Susanna, widow of Thomas Fisher, of the Priory, Warwick, and thus became possessed of the Deanery there. He wedded secondly, Mary, eldest dau. of George Padsey, of Langley Hall, in the county of Warwick, and by her left a son,
Thomas, who m. a daughter of Walter Washington, of Radway, and had a son and daughter, viz.
Thomas, who wedded (IGI extracted record: 28 May 1646, Claverdon, Warwick, Eng.) to Elizabeth, daughter of Edward Cookes, of Pinley Abbey in Warwickshire, and in his son this branch became extinct.
Alice, m. to John Wagstaffe, esq., of Tachbrooke.
From all of the above, it is evident that Thomas Stanton, son of Thomas and Katherine (Washington) Stanton, remained in England; that he entered Oxford, aged 17 years in 1634; that he married Elizabeth Cookes and had a son Thomas, who was 17 in 1664, when he was admitted to Oxford. These details make it necessary to abandon the theory that the Stonington, CT settler was a son of Thomas and Katherine (Washington) Stanton
