Thomas Dibble was born Aug 21, 1677 in Windsor, Hartford, CT164, and died Feb 22, 1754 in East Hampton, Suffolk Co., NY. He married Rachel Mulford on Apr 02, 1699164, daughter of Thomas Mulford and Mary Gardiner Conklin.

 Includes NotesNotes for Thomas Dibble:
The Dibbles, well represented in East Hampton from the late 17th to the 19th centuries, were English, and first came to New England. There are records of a Thomas Dibble and others in early Dorchester, MA and Winsor, CT. The name is variously spelled Dibble, Debbel, Debel, Dibblee and Daboll. There is some authority for the supposition that one of the family was the author of the famous Daboll's Almanack.

Three Dibbles, probably brothers, came to East Hampton shortly before 1700. One was Thomas, whose marriage to Rebecca Mulford in 1699 was the first marriage recorded by the Rev. Nathaniel Huntting. The other brothers were George, who married Mary "Buil" in 1704 and joined the church in 1705; and Samuel, whose child Elizabeth was baptized in 1707. His marriage was not recorded, which may mean that he was already married when he came to East Hampton, or that he was married by Rev. Thomas James who kept no records. An Elizabeth Dibble who was married to James Hand, Sr., in 1704 obviously could not have been a daughter of any of these three brothers. Perhaps she was their sister. Thomas and George are the first Dibbles mentioned in the records and are referred to as weavers, Samuel and Elizabeth may have come later.
