Biography

The wife of Thomas Hicks was Margaret _____, who was probably mother of all this children.
NOTE: Although she has been called "West"[1][2] (and even daughter of Zachariah West of London[3][4]) or "Atwood,"[citation needed] no proof of either surname appears in the original records.
There are numerous pedigree charts that list Margaret Hicks as arriving on the Anne in 1622, and claiming her husband was Thomas Hicks. That is incorrect. The Margaret Hicks who arrived on the Fortune in 1621 was the wife of Robert Hicks, who some claim (without support) was the brother of this Thomas.[citation needed]
On 9 Jun 1653, "Widow Hicks, wife of the late deceased Thomas Hicks of Scituate, by reason of age and weakness cannot appear in Court to make oath to the inventory of is estate..." [citation needed]
5 July 1666, she was on Scituate tax list. Last record of her.[citation needed]
Others say she died before 6 Mar 1665/6.[citation needed]
