I found a little more information in a paper about Thomas' grandson John Chamberlain presented to the Maine Historical Society by another descendant. From" JOHN CHAMBERLAIN,THE INDIAN FIGHTER AT PIGWACKET." BY GEORGE W. CHAMBERLAIN.
His grandfather, Thomas Chamberlain of Chelmsford, who was both senior and junior, was a soldier in King Philip's war, being stationed at the frontier garrison in Groton on November 30, 1675. He was probably the Thomas Chamberlain who served in Syll's Company and also in Poole's Company in 1676. Thomas, the father, and Thomas, the grandfather, were both stationed at the garrison in Chelmsford on March 16, 1691-92.
