Thomas Finche (bap 28 July 1633)


Thomas f. Johis Finche et Jenet: 28 Jul 1633
Lancashire: Standish - Parish Register, 1560-1653

There is little information about Thomas Finch although he follows the tradition of using the grandfathers name in this case the name “Thomas”. He was baptised in 1633.

The speculative image used for Thomas Finche tries to capture something of a family resemblance with his father John although here we see Thomas as an older man with nothing of the exhuberance of his father.

Once more, there is little evidence for the life of Thomas beyond his baptism in Standish and the birth of his children. Alexander Finche (1660-1719) and Mary born in 1680.

The name of Thomas’ wife is Ellin Greene from Pemberton with a marriage recorded on 8April 1656 at St Wilfrid’s parish Church in Standish
