page 257		The absence of wills of the Bures family presents difficulties in compiling a pedigree of the family, but it is evident that the Thomas Felbrigge, who was baptized 23 Sept.1583, the son of Thomas, is the emigrant to New England, as his wife and children, who were baptized at Bures, re-appear in New England.  As to the father of the elder Thomas, he cannot be ascertained with certainty, but it may be suggested that he may have been Robert Felbrigge who was buried 28 June 1571 or the Edward Filbrick buried 23 Nov 1593.   However, as the case now stands , the pedigree must commence with Thomas, the father of the emigrant.        1. Thomas Felbridge, of Bures, co. Suffolk, perhaps a fuller, born about 145-1550, died after 1621.  He married, about 1574, Elizabeth, who was buried at Bures in 1619.  He is probably the Thomas Felbridgge who occurs at Bures in 26 Elizabeth (1583/4), and was amerced on 2 June, 38 Elizabeth (1596) at a view of frankpledge at the Bures manor court.  On 26 October, 6 James (1608) he was a capital pledge and aletaster there; on 5 October, 18 James (1620) he was searcher of cloth at Bures.         CHILDREN        1.

Thomas Felbridge or Philbrick (Thomas1), of Bures, baptized 23 Sept. 1584, at Bures, died at Hampton, N. H., in 1667.  He married at Bures, 4 June 1615, Elizabeth (baptized in 1593), daughter of William Knop (Knapp) of Bures, died in Hampton 19 Feb 1663/4.  As Thomas Filbridge, Jr., he was sworn as a juryman (capital pledge with homage at a Bures court 5 October, 18 James I (1620)).  He occurs in the Bures manor court rolls on 12 Oct. 1631, when, as Thomas Filbrig, Jr., he was amerced 3/4 as a tenant of the manor for a default. He came to New England about 1635 and was a proprietor at Watertown, Mass., in 1636.  In January 1545/6 he sold his property in Watertown and joined his sons in Hampton.  In 1655 he was a culler of staves.  His will, dated 12 March 1663/4, was proved 8 Oct. 1667.
