92 Thomas Cary.  b. Providence, RI in 1741.74 d. before 1800. bpt. Beneficent Congregational Church, Providence, RI on May 3, 1747.75

Cary Memorials by Samuel Fenton Cary incorrectly states that Thomas Cary the cabinet maker of Providence County was the son of David Cary of Bristol, RI. However, Bristol, MA vital records show the death of Thomas Cary, son of David & Mary in June, 1735.76 The Cary Memorials records this Thomas' birth date as January 19, 1735, which is not in the Bristol Vital Records and conflicts with the birth date of August 9, 1735 for a sister, and does not make sense given a death in June of 1735. 77 There is no record of another birth of a Thomas Cary to David Cary of Bristol. The evidence from Providence County indicate that Thomas Cary the "shopjoiner" of Providence County was actually the son of Benjamin and Thankful Cary of Providence where he was born. The evidence supporting this are colonial census listings that indicate his home town as Providence, Town Council testimony of Thomas that he was born in Providence, and court records indicating his town of origin was Providence.
