He came to America with his parents, in about 1638 and was granted a house-lot adjacent to that of his father in Hartford in 1640. Sometime thereafter, Thomas Jr. removed to Saybrook, Connecticut. Though the Bliss Genealogy of 1881 states that his occurred after his father's death, it is more likely that Thomas removed to Saybrook in about 1644, where is marriage to Elizabeth (surname unknown) is recorded, as are the births of six of their children (Caulkins History of Norwich, 1866, page 167). At Saybrook his allotment of land was east of the Connecticut River, is what is now Lyme. His home lot lay between John OMPSTED's (OLMSTEAD) on the north and John LAY's on the south. He sold his land July 23 1662 to John COMSTOCK and Richard SMITH, having removed with his family, to Norwich, Connecticut, tow or three years prior. (The book then goes into a dissertation of the founding of the town of Norwich).. His allotment at Norwich was "next to Sergeant LEFFINGWELL (opposite, according to the ancient map), on the street as it runs south, five acres and a fourth, with a lane on the south leading to a watering place at at the river." This homestead was still occupied by his descendants in 1880, seven generations of the same name having successively inherited the homestead and dwelt therin. The property had been held under the original deed, and the house itself, it is framework was doubtless the original habitation built by the first grantee.. instances of two hundred years of family ownership (In the US) are not very common.
In 1680(?), Thomas BLISS and Matthew GRISWOLD were appointed agents by the town of Saybrook to "lay out a lot of land to an Indian named The Giant, " near Black Point, in what was (1880) East Lyme, Connecticut. The locality was (1880) called " The Giant's Neck."
Thomas Bliss's will was dated April 13 1688, two days before his death. In it provision was made for his wife ( who was born in about 1623 and to whom he was married October 30, 1644) and six daughters and his only living son, Samuel, who was at that time thirty-one years of age. His estate estimated at 182 pounds, 7 shillings and 7 pence. He had land, beside his home lot, "over the river, on the Little Plain, at the Great Plain, at the Falls, in the Yantic meadow, in meadow at Beaver Brook, in pasture east of the town, and on Westward Hill." Mrs Bliss died February 28, 1699 (O.S.) at Norwich.Thomas was of Hartford, Saybrook and Norwich Connecticut.
