Thomas Macy, according to Tradition. must have passed the earlier months of his sojourn on the Island with few if any English associates outside his own family. Tradition further says that early in the spring (Mr. Macy having removed in October or November. Edward Starbuck returned to Salisbury or Dover and when he finally returned to Nantucket several neighbors came with him. It is difficult to see the basis for the story as it is told. Similarly tradition says that Mr. Macy returned to Salisbury and remained there awhile. There seems to be no evidence confirmatory of such a story.

Tradition has apparently aimed to establish a fact that Thomas Macy and his family and Edward Starbuck and Isaac Coleman settled in Nantucket in the fall of 1659 but there seems to be no available evidence to prove this assumption. Macy's letter, written in Salisbury to explain why he did not appear to answer the summons of the Court. was dated October 27, 1659. The decision of the Court in his case was not given until November 12. Some time would be required to perfect his plans after he learned the decision of the Court, though it is doubtful if that seriously affected him to move with his wife and four or more [Two sons, Francis and Thomas, died unmarried and probably formed part of his family] children in to a strange country inhabited only by Indians just at the opening of winter. Furthermore all meetings of the company prior to that of July 15, 1661, were held at Salisbury, the one of that date was held at Nantucket. At the meeting at Salisbury May 16. 1661 all apparently being present. it was decided that in the future the recprds of the Company should be kept at Salisbury by Robert Pike, and at Nantucket by Thomas Macy. It is more than probable that his permaent residence was not at Nantucket until 1661.

Mr. Macy's house lot was on the eastern side of Reed Pond, then a creek extending from the north shore of the road. Obed Macy says his house was moved to Wesco': and very recently it stood in Macy's Lane. He seems to have been a man good judgment and marked self control and his correspondence with Gov. Andros at the time of the "Insurrection," is in marked contrast to that of Gardner and Folger.
