Notes
- Believed to have died in prison after serving nine years, placed there because of his religious beliefs. From GenCircles, Northsea, http://www.gencircles.com/users/snorthsea/1/data/701: "...Reverend Thomas Budd,1615-1670, matriculated at Merton College, Oxford, 1633, BA, 1633, MA, 1636; Vicar of Montacute, 1639; was rector of Martock, in Somersetshire, England. He became interested in the teachings of George Fox the Quaker, was sequestered to the vicarage of Kingsbury, 1646; and about the year 1657, renounced his benefice and became a minister among Friends. Four of his five sons, Thomas, William, John, and James, were all Quakers who settled in West Jersey and Philadelphia, PA. The Budd Family 1981: 3 centuries of Budds, Betty Budd Carlisle, p17, 18,68: He was a man of integrity, strength and intelligence and lived his whole life in England. Most of his life, except for his years in Oxford, was lived in the villages of Kingsbury, Episcopi, Martock, and Montacute, where he was a Vicar in the Church of England, and later a Quaker convert, minister and martyr. All of these villages are within a few miles of each other in the lush and beautiful Somerset levels; and Ilchester, where he was imprisoned and died, was in the same small circle. Proof of his being the father of the America clan was obtained by Mr. Robin Bush searching boxes of papers etc. from the early 1600's and translating the latin to verify the marriage and children data. These papers support that Susannah Prigge was the mother of all of Thomas's children. Marriage date listed. Comly Family in America, George Norwood Comly, 1939, p.769: gives b. date and parents.
