This Thomas Stockton, who died in London in 1675, might be the uncle of Richard "The Emigrant" Stockton (c.1635-1707) of Flushing, Long Island, New Netherland (later New York). The names of Richard's parents are not known.
Journal of John Bowne, 1650 - 1694
"to enquyer for Richards stoktons Ounkel {uncle} his name is Thomas Stockton a docker of fisick liueing in Cole harber in or nere london."
John Bowne was a neighbor of Richard "The Emigrant" Stockton in what was then Vlissingen, Long Island, New Netherland, now Flushing, Long Island, New York. John Bowne's Journal includes information about life in Flushing and his Quaker missions to England.
It appears that Richard "The Emigrant" Stockton requested John Bowne enquire about his uncle Thomas Stockton who lived in "Cole harbor" in or near London. "Cole harbor" is probably the district of Coldharbour that is in the center of London. John Bowne shows Richard's uncle Thomas Stockton as a "docker of fisick." In the 1600's a Doctor of Medicine was known as a "Doctor of Phyic."
Coldharbour was destroyed by the 1666 Great Fire of London.
