NOTES
1). Thomas will was dated 30 September 1657 and proba t e d 2 9 J une 1658. There is tentative and highly ambiguous evidence that T h o m as Scudder may have departed Kent after 26 March 16 3 7 t o a v oid possible loss of a suit for heavy damages a ga ins t hi m , going first to Colingbourne Ducis the hom e o f h i s brot her, Reverend Henry Scudder , and then t o Amer ica.Th e evide nce is contained in the report of a d amage s uit i n Chancer y C ourt in 1640 several years aft er Thoma s dep arture in volving Sir Henry Neese and hi s wife, pet itioner s, agains t Mr. Chase,clergyman, and h is father an d brothe rs. Sir H enry asserted that while h e and his wif e were te mporarily i n London, Mr. Chase e t al seized Si r Henry s dw elling in St one , Kent, calle d Stone Castle about four mi les north o f Horton Kirby ,for a fortnight , consuming o r embezzling h is possessio ns,and denying hi m access or pos session. Durin g this per iod, Sir Henryleas ed a second hous e, in Horton Ki rby, ap parently owned by T homas Scudder, i n which to live . Si r Henry further mainta ined that the Cha ses, in pursu i t of their malice agains t him, secretly c onspired wit h He nry Scudder, clerke, a nd the said Thomas S cudder o f Ho rton Kirby , to deny Si r Henry access to the s econ d house a s well , in order t o carry outtheir threat t o drive him o ut of that countr y. By the time of the 16 4 0 Chancery case , Sir Henry ha d regained possessio n o f Stone Castle an d had recovered 3 0 pounds in damage s fro m the Chases throug h five or si x courts of law an d equity . The apparent purp ose of th e 1640 action was c hiefly t o enable Sir Henry to r ecove r additional damage s to cove r his costs, which he clai me d in one stat emen t to amoun t in excess of treble the s a id 30 pounds, a nd others t o total in excess of 300 pou nds. Thomas Scudder was also known as Old Goodman Scudd e r i n his community.
