According to Mooar’s Descendants of Isaac Cummings115, “198. THOMAS CUMMINGS (Thomas6, Thomas5, John4, John3, John2, Isaac1), married (published Jan. 16, 1779), Elizabeth Hildreth. In the publication he was called Thomas third. He removed to Deerfield, N.Y.

“[Was it Mary Hildreth? A Mary Hildreth, daughter of Ephraim and Elizabeth (French) Hildreth, born 1765, had brothers Jeremiah and Hezekiah. A Mrs. Mary Cummings died in Westford May 9, 1843, aged 86.]”

Would love to hear what you come up with on this Thomas Cummings (the third?)
and his wife Elizabeth. It seems Mooar or the American DAR has mixed two
Thomas' together, Thomas who married as his 2nd wife Lodema Blanchard and was
the probable son of Stephen Sr. >Abraham Jr.>Abraham Sr.>John>Isaac and Thomas
who married a Hildreth. Thomas prob. son of Stephen Sr. died in Troupsburg,
Steuben Co., NY. Thomas called the III may have also been in the area (a
monument erected to him as a Rev. Soldier) but by all indications he may not
have been there and Deerfield but PA not NY was where Thomas prob. son of
Stephen Sr. was residing for a while.

I think Am Rev. pension records may have been inadvertently combined and a
cause to this confusion.

Kind regards.
