     Thomas Gould married Elizabeth Baulston, daughter of William Baulston and Elizabeth (?), in 1655.^1,2 He died on 20 August 1693 without issue.^1,2

     Elizabeth Baulston was born say 1628.¹ She married first John Coggeshall, son of John Coggeshall and Mary (?), probably in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, about 1647.^1,3 They were divorced in 1655 in Newport, Rhode Island. They had attempted to divorce each other privately in a written agreement dated 3 October 1654, when the only legal cause for divorce was adultery, but this was apparently not approved by the courts. On 25 May 1655 the court changed the law to allow divorce for other reasons, and then added an addendum to the 1654 agreement granting John Coggeshall the right to remarry, effectively granting the divorce under the new law. Elizabeth was granted the same right to remarry on 29 June 1655. The story of their divorce is quite interesting, including testimony of adultery and later lawsuits by descendants attempting to claim their inheritance. See the NEHGR article for details.¹ She married second Thomas Gould, son of Jeremy Gould and Priscilla Grover, in 1655.^3,1 She died "blind and almost deaf" on 1 October 1700 (the Gould genealogy says in 1696) in Portsmouth, Rhode Island.^1,2
