Misc. Notes
Thomas was registrant at the 1633-35 Visitation of London. In 1658 he came to Maryland as an indentured servant of John Horne. He served an indenture of three years. "In a later document he describes himself as a carpenter as well as a farmer and trader. This would explain the relatively short period, three years, of his indenture. The usual term of service for unskilled immigrants was six or more years.'
On January 18, 1663, Marsham purchased 750 acres called Marsham's Rest on the Patuxent River. They lived in Bladensburg, Maryland where Richard engaged in shipping and commerce, operating through the port of Bladensburg.
