" Thomas Thompson was one of the founders of East Hampton, LI in 1649, having come form Lynn, MA, by way of New London, CT. At East Hampton, he resided on the W side of the street, near Robert bond and the two Mulfords. Goodman Thompson was one of the Deputies of Elizabethtown, in the Legislature of 1672. He was active in opposing the arbitrary measures of Gov. Carteret, and was mulcted for his patriotism. His house-lot contained 6 acres, bounded N, and S, by Barnabas Wines; W by a highway; and E, by Mill creek. He also had 18 acres of upland "on Luke Watson's Neck," bounded by Stephen Crane, Dennis White, George Pack, and his own land; alos 20 acres of upland adjoining the last, bounded by his son, Hur, Joseph Sayre, George Pack, and unsurveyed land; also 4 acres "in Rawack Meadow;" also 18 acres of meadow on a creek, which was named for him, "Thompson's Creek," and since "Morris Creek;" in all 188 acres.
His three sons, also, were among the original associates. Moses, who took the oath in Feb, 1665/6, had a warrant for 180 acres, but the survey is not on the record. Aaron, came into possession of the homestead, at his father's death, Sept 1676, and had a warrant for 60 acres. Hur had a house-lot, containing 4 acres; bounded S and E by a highway, N by Thomas Osborn, and E, by unsurveyed land. He also had 12 acres of upland, bounded by Leonard Headley, Joseph Osborn, John Wilson, and a highway; also 45 acres of upland, bounded by William Pardon, a small brook, the Westbrook, and unsurveyed land; also 6 acres of meadow on the Bay, 4 acres on Woodruff's Creek, and 10 acres more; in all 161 acres. The father's estate was valued at L152."
