Well there are a few trees on ancestry with this family. None have any sustantiated evidence.

Is this Thomas?



Thomas Pearson
Birth abt 1688 in Bombay Hook, Delaware, USA
Death abt 1756 in Bombay Hook, Delaware, USA


If so, this is recorded as his father by one tree.


John James Pearson
Birth 1660 in York, Yorkshire, England, United Kingdom
Baptism
1661 20 May
Death in Bombay Hook, Delaware, USA


Other trees have his mother as



Elizabeth "Pearson"


and his wife as Christian.



His children are

Richard Pearson
1717 – 1798

Edward Pearson

This is the evidence for Thomas' father's baptism according to that tree but there is nothing to suggest that it is correct.
