I assume your will on Anne came from "Genealogical Gleanings in England" because I have the same.However according to an article by Larry Gragg in the NEHGR "The Barbados Connection:
John Parris and the early New England Trade with the West Indies".Thomas saved his brother John from economic disaster.Thomas began purchasing Barbados property in the 1650's and by the late 1650's had purchased the 3 plantations John was forced to sell. Thomas's exploits in Barbados is well documented in 4 or 5 publications, however I haven't seen anything on his wife Anne outside of the Genealogical Gleanings.
