  • Notes: 

  • According to the Gilman genealogy by Constance Le Neve Gilman Ames in 1950, Thomas Gilman is assumed to be the son of Thomas and Abigail Gilman as there were no other Gilmans in the area at the time. This genealogy also claims that he was born in Exeter, New Hampshire, which disagrees with the DAR file.
