  • Notes 
    • (Research):Per Philip Davis:
      Married ca 1648 Elizabeth Arnold. There is reliable evidence that Thomas came with the William Arnold party which arrived in RI 20 Apr 1636, shortly after the arrival of Roger Williams. Thomas Hopkins on 27 Jul 1640 with 38 others signed an agreement for a form of government in RI. In 1650 he appeared on the tax rolls of Providence & was made a freeman in 1655. He was a deputy to the General Court for 4 yrs 1665-7 and 1672; on the Town Council 2yrs 1667 & 1672. At the outbreak of King Phillips War in 1675 or a little earlier, Thomas removed to Oyster Bay.
