This article seems to be mostly about Thomas Sydenham. I propose to move the text about Thomas to the Thomas Sydenham article. Biscuittin (talk) 23:14, 19 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Done. Biscuittin (talk) 09:33, 20 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Their eldest daughter Mary married(?)^[1] a grocer from Melcombe Regis called Walter Thornhill, and the painter, Sir James Thornhill was their son.
In about 1690, their daughter Mary's husband(?) Walter Thornhill fled to Massachusetts to escape a debt to his sister-in-law in Stalbridge, and abandoned Mary and their eleven children, including James. Mary's parents being both now dead, she and her children were taken in by a brother of her father (Sydenham). Walter Thornhill went on to father two more children (illegitimate) in America.^[2]
