Other information

     It would appear highly unlikely that a Thomas son of John would marry in 1663 and have subsequent children.
Other sources report him marrying a Joanna Calmady in 1624 and Thomas dying 1641 to be buried at St Eustachius Tavistock and Joanna dying to be buried St Andrew's Tavistock in 1664 with a son John buried St Peters, Peter Tavy, Devon in 1694.
It seems more probable that Thomas the son of Sir John Glanville and Alice Skerrett was NOT a vicar of Tavistock but was the man who married Johanna Calamdye circa 1624 and the father of the Rev Thomas vicar of Tavistock who married Grace Danyell in 1663.
