Notes:

Thomas Rogers of Dedham, Essex, England immigrated to New England by 1634, with his first residence in the colonies being in Watertown, Massachusetts.[1][2] With him was his wife Grace, his daughter Elizabeth, and his stepson John Sherman and (probably) a second stepson, Richard Sherman.

On the 28th of February 1636, Thomas was granted five lots in the Plowlands at Beaverbroke Plaines.[3] On the 25th of July 1636 he was granted five acres in the Remote Meadows.[1] The land was allotted by household members. This implies that there could have been five people in the household. Four of those would have been Thomas, his wife Grace, his stepson John Sherman, and his daughter Elizabeth. The fifth was probably his other stepson, Richard Sherman. In the Watertown Inventory of Grants he held a eight acres. All eight parcels held by Thomas were granted to him, and not acquired by purchase from earlier settlers. In order for Thomas to receive the eight land grants, he must have been in Watertown by 1634.[1]

He was admitted to the Watertown church prior to the 17th of May 1637, when he was admitted as a freeman.

Thomas married Grace MCKIM (MAKIN) on 24 Jan 1616 in Leiden, Holland, Netherlands. Grace (daughter of Tobias MCKIM (MAKIN) and Katherine BELL) was born in 1588 in Fingeringhoe, England; died on 3 Jun 1662 in Duxbury, Plymouth County, Massachusetts. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
