Thomas2, son of Richard1 and Mary Waite of Watertown, was born there 3 March 1641/2. He married Sarah, daughter of James and Mary (?Barnard) Cutler of Watertown and Cambridge Farms (later Lexington) Massachusetts. Sarah was born about 1652/3. He probably married in Cambridge Farms or Watertown, then removed to Weston, Massachusetts where all their children were born. That, aside from their children is all we now know of this man. He died 3 January 1722/3 in Weston, but was called of Cambridge Farms in the church record. His wife died in Weston 17 January 1743/4 (note: this death date for Sarah is from Bond's Watertown. He states the record says she was age 91 but church record says age 89.)
