    From another source lists Geoffrey Norris (1559-1609+) & Mary Myles as parents.

    Thomas Norris is said to have followed William Claiborne, in his trading expeditions up the Chesapeake Bay, and then settled in St. Mary's Co. as a Protestant planter.
    As a trader, he went back and forth between Maryland and Virginia, and this is why he is recorded as being transported several times.
    Corinne Hanna Diller (Cdiller@juno.com) believes all the children were born in Maryland; however, there is good evidence that most of them were in England during the 1670's.
    There are no deed records in St. Mary's Co. pre-1831.

In 1637 he wed Ann Hynson, daughter of Thomas Hynson of Nansemond Co VA and Kent Island MD. (Records Annapolis 1637) Ann died c1660. Thomas became a planter asociated with his brother-in- law, Daniel
    Glover, who wed Ann's sister. In 1663 Thomas and Daniel were both transported" to Talbot Co MD by John Morgan where, in 1665, they jointly purchased 400 acres of land. In 1673 Thomas had a a grant of 200 acres called "Norrisderry" on Chester River, as well as other lands.
