GILES (Cromwell and Cromlome), liv. in Salisbury, but all (two) of his ch. liv. in N. H. Tortured by geneal. writers ad in-fin., he was not the father of Mr. Philip, the Salem merchant, cattle buyer and butcher, nor of Capt. Thomas, the Barbadoes and Boston mariner and merchant (will 1649). His rel. to Thomas (4) is unasc., plaus. a bro.; app. Giles came over to claim Thomas’s estate. The deaths credited to Newbury vital records: ‘Thomas Cromlome dyed 1635, ye wife of Thomas Cromlome dyed 1635,’ is an interpolated entry of a later period and gives an incredible year, yet may indicate that (4) and his w. d. in one year. The entry in Mass. Rec. 14 June 1642: ‘Crumwells girle of Newbury is referred to Ipsw. Court,’ is unexpl. Charles S. Tibbetts’s hypothesis that the same Giles m. in Erling, Hampshire, 20 Feb. 1629-30 Alice Weeks, is also plaus. and uninvgst.; but at Salem the will of Thomas Wickes, w.
