= Sir Thomas Piers =
b.ca. 1616, d. April 1680

Sir Thomas Piers married twice, firstly to Jane Oxenden around 1643, and then, following her early death, to Audrey Master of Ospringe in May 1649. He had four children; Thomas Piers (b. abt 1643, d. 1693), his son and heir by Jane, and three further boys by Audrey, including a son, Streynsham, who shared his cousin Streynsham Master's unusual forename. According to Hasted Sir Thomas Piers’ father was Lawrence Piers (alt. Peirce) of Westfield, Sussex. Westfield is a parish a few miles to the north east of Hastings on the road to Ashford, and appears to have had a high proportion of yeoman and weaver/kersey makers in its early C17th PRC wills.

Sir Thomas Piers had his home at Stonepit(t)(s), near Seal in North Kent, which he inherited from his father. The house had come into the family through his father’s marriage to XXXX of Stonepitt. Though Sir Thomas is cited by Maximilian Dallison in his legal complaint against the Oxenden brothers after Elizabeth Dallison's death, he appears to have maintained relations with Maximilian, and was appointed XXXX in Maximilian's will of 1671.
