Notes for THOMAS GUBTAIL:
THIS THOMAS IS MY 8TH GREAT GRANDFATHER:
"The first record of the Guptill(Gubtail) name in this country is of Thomas Gubtail, who may have been born in England, Scotland or Wales!?! He was in Portsmouth, New Hampshire in 1670 and on the tax list in 1672. His wife, Mary Abbot, born about 1652 was the daughter of Walter and Mary (Or possibly Sarah) of Portsmouth. They received a deed of a log house and 1/2 acre from her mother and stepfather, Henry Sherbourne (from the Genealogy Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire) in 1680. Thomas was alive in 1686 but had certainly died before 1696, when his widow married William Caverly. She was alive as late as 1732 when she and her two Caverly children sold rights in the estate of her second husband. There are no birth records for Guptill children, but it is assumed that the following, all mentioned in that area, were children of Thomas and Mary (Abbott) Guptill. Only Nathaniel is known to have had male heirs."
Taken from "One Line of Guptill Descent" compiled by Claude W. Barlow, Ph.D. Worcester, Mass, 1963. Copy found at N.E. His Gen, Boston, Mass.

Reference to Gubtails being from Wales was found in several sources; one is the following: "Fond Memory" by Myra Smith Earl (published by her family twenty years after her death.)

page 21:"I think you should know something about all these ancestors, the kind of lives they lived and the houses in which they lived them. The Guptills were Welsh, the name originally having been Gubtail. As you will see, they and the Pendletons married and intermarried, Pendleton sons marrying Guptill daughters and Guptill sons marrying Pendelton daughters."

From "Ancestors~Relatives~Descendants of Guptill" by John T. and Dolores Guptill: Thomas Guptaile was a Captain, a mariner. He was lost at sea after 1686.
