Hi you have to forgive me, my research was started while in High school and I remember
looking at a ships manifest and finding a Chaffee, but not Thomas earlier than 1630's.
At the time I was thinking this could be the parent/guardian of Thomas because of the time
frame where he would have been a child and not listed on the manifest. I'll have to
recheck at the Burton Historical Collection here. It may have been conjecture on my part,
but wouldn't it be great if it panned out. Congrats on your purchase of the Chaffee
book, Im in the process of listing my home for sale and a lot of things have been packed
up and i have been unable to locate my copy but I know its in a box somewhere.
