The author presents the evidence for Elizabeth Tomson, daughter of John and Mary (Cook) Tomson, marrying a Thomas Swift, not William Swift. As part of the narrative, the author states: "There is no marriage record for William³ Swift. We know he had a wife Elizabeth, but nowhere does her name appear to identify her as Elizabeth Tomson."
