I have researched Thomas Lake of Stratford and have been unable to
find his parents. I have added this to my family tree site - maybe it
will help:

It is unknown who his parents were. However, the following could be
ruled out:

Henry & Alice Lake - From the story of "Alice Lake Executed as a Witch"
by Alice Marie Beard, the descendants of Alice and her son, Thomas, b.
1644, are listed, as well as his children. He is NOT Thomas of Stratford,
but lived and died in Little Compton, RI.

John & Margaret Reade Lake - From the "Ancestry of John Lake, Husband
of Margaret Reade Lake" by Walter Goodwin Davis, BAA., LL.B., Published
in New England Historical & Genealogical Register - Margaret separated
from her husband in 1635 when she moved to America. John remained in
England until his death. Their son, Thomas, born in 1618, was too old
to be Thomas of Stratford and living until 1628. Some records show this
Thomas marrying "Mary" in 1638 and living in Boston, MA.

Thomas & Mary Goodyear - from "A History of My People and Yours" by
Claud Nelson McMillan - their son, Thomas, b. 1656, returned to England
and became a barrister.

John & Ann Spicer Lake - did not have a son named Thomas.   (NOTE - THIS IS IN ERROR. - MEL)

John & Mary Coye Lake - had one son, Caleb, who died young. Did not have
any other issue.
