Notes for THOMAS BURGESS:
Burgess Genealogy, by K. W. Hiam, 1997, pub by the NEHGS pg 1:
"The Immigrant: Thomas Burgess of Sandwich, Massachusetts"
Thomas, the immigrant, is sometimes thought to have come to Salem, Massachusetts, with his wife, Dorothy, and his young family in 1630. A stone set by the grave of John Burgess, Jr. (John, Joseph, John, Thomas) in Center Cem., Rochester, reads 'Descendant of Thomas Burgess the pilgrim who landed at Salem 1630' ... A land record dated July 3, 1637, shows that he [Thomas] forfeited acreage assigned him at Duxbury, in order to settle the same year at Sandwich. There, he and his family lived at the western end of town, which later became part of the township of Bourne, in the area now called Sagamore. He became a large landowner in Sandwich and serve the town in many capacities.
Thomas, his wife Dorothy, their only daughter, Elizabeth (Burgess) Perry, and her husband, Ezra Perry, are buried quite close together near the brow of the hill in the Old Burying Ground on Grove Street in Sandwich.

THE BURGESS HISTORY TREE by Paul F. Burgess. Genealogy Publishing Service, Franklin, North Carolina. 1993:
Thomas Burgess arrived with his wife in Salem, Massachusetts, in 1630, at the age of 27, and remained for a time in the adjoining community of Lynn, about ten miles northeast of Boston. (They are believed to have arrived on the ship 'The Blessing of the Bay'.) A section of land was assigned to him, 3 July 1637, in Duxbury, 30 miles south of Boston; but in the same year there appeared on the map, 64 miles south of Boston, the township of Sandwich, in the colony of Plymouth, to which he moved the following year, making his permanent abode in that section of the township which has come to be known as Sagamore... He was one of the original eleven male members of the first Congregational Church in Sandwich and was known among his contemporaries as "Goodman Burgess."

Notes for DOROTHY WAYNES:
Burgess Gen., by K. W. Hiam,1997, NEHGS pg 2:
I am not certain that 'Waynes' was actually Dorothy Burgess's maiden name. A submission by Benjamin F. Wilbour of Little Compton, Rhode Island, to 'Notes' in the NEHGR (118 [1964]:323) reads thus: 'The following record from 'Paver's Marriage Licences (in Yorkshire Archaeological Journal, Vol. 20 p. 74, 1909) may pertain to him and suggest the place of his birth 'Thomas Burgess and Dorothy Waynes [married at] Tanfield [co. York, England] in 1628 .' (See also The American Genealogist 61[1985]:69.)
