Excerpt from Thomas Tarbell and Some of His Descendants
1. Thomas Tarbell, the ancester of all the early Tarbell families of New England, settled in Watertown as early as 1647, at which time he is mentioned on the town records as owning land. Mar. 30, 1663, he and wife, Mary, sold his house and land there, and removed to Groton, where she died Apr. 29, 1674, aged 54 years. The family retired from Groton to Charlestown at the destruction of the former town during King Philip's war, and there he married second, Aug. 15, 1676, Susanna, widow of John Lawrence, and died of the small pox, June 11, 1678. Administration upon his estate was granted to his son, John, Aug.17, 1678.
2. Thomas Tarbell (Thomas) was, with his father, an original proprietor of Groton. He married there, June 30, 1666, Hannah or Anna, daughter of William and Joanna Longley of Groton. After the destruction of that town during King Philip's war, he and his family removed to Charlestown, where they lived in the family of Samuel Leman, whose wife was a sister of Hannah.
