  • Name Thomas SPOONER  [1, 2
    • Thomas Spooner remained in Plymouth. He was a shoemaker by trade, and conducted this business many years, accumulating a competency by his own labor and that of those who were in his employ.

      He was a man of more than the average ability having received a good education for the times; he turned this advantage in a good direction, not solely to his own aggrandizement, but to that end which would accomplish the most good for his townsmen. Soon his ability and his high integrity gave him recognition and placed him in responsible official station, and for many years he served the town in one office or another.

      He was Lieutenant of the North Foot Company, under command of Capt. Isaac Lothrop, Jr., in the 1st regiment of militia in the county of Plymouth, whereof James Warren was Colonel.

      Like others of this branch of the family, Thomas was a member of Plymouth church, and he often served upon its committees and in its offices.

      His remains were interred on "Burial Hill" by the side of his father.
