Thomas and Abraham Doud Documentation

Thomas Doud, son of Henry Doude, was born in England making the journey to America with his father. He married Ruth Johnson on December 11, 1679. I have also added the birth records for Thomas and Ruth’s sons Joseph and Abraham. Abraham, born August 22, 1691 was Reuben Doud’s grandfather. These records are from the same volume that contained the “burial” record for Henry Doude. Thomas's death record is found within the pages of the original town records.Also presented is the registration of the earmarks used by Abraham. Registration of the earmark used by each man was essential since the use of a common grazing ground was part of the design of most New England towns. Abraham married his cousin Sarah Doud on May 1, 1712 their marriage is also found in the original Guilford town records. Reuben/ Abraham/ ABRAHAM/THOMAS/Henry.
