The American Genealogist (TAG), Vol. 45, 1969, Thomas, progenitor of the
Shaylor, Shailer, Shayler family in America, is believed to have come to this
country from Stratford-on-Avon about 1660. In 1662 he was one of a party of
twenty-eight men from Hartford, Windsor and Wethersfield who commenced the
settlement of Haddam on land purchased from the Indians by the General Court of
Connecticut. Like many of the men from the towns along the Connecticut River,
Thomas was a sailor and spent much of his time at sea. Sometime after 1706 he
sailed, it is said, for the West Indies and never returned, presumably lost at
sea. The date is fixed by an action of the Court which on 3 March 1706/7
discharged Thomas from his responsibilities as administrator of the estate of
John Kennoe or Kenner, husband of his wife's sister, Rebecca (Spencer) Kennoe.
