Notes
Homesteaded
It is presumed that Thomas filed for the homestead shortly before his death and may have been proved up 5 years later by Sarah and perhaps her new husband, Charles Briggs. GLO records indicate that it was canceled and the property subsequently filed upon again as a homestead in 1878.Endnotes
