External Links WikiTree: Thomas Leighton (1604-1672)
Thomas arrived in Salem, Massachusetts on October 10, 1633. Very little is known about his origin; some say he was Scottish, others English. He moved to Dover Point and was a signer of the Dover Combination and served as a selectman and constable. While Joanna's roots are unknown, it is believed her maiden name was Silsby and it appears he married her in 1640, so she must have been in the Dover area already.We are descended from Thomas and Joanna through the Laviolette (DeRochemont) line.
