from Lincoln genforum:

He is supposed to have migrated to Hingham, Massachusetts in 1635 or 1636. History of Hingham, vol.1, page 202 describes him as Thomas Lincoln, Jr. the miller as having settled or received a grant of land in Hingham in 1636, and according to the same history volume 3 page 20 he received a deed of a house lot of five acres in Hingham dated July 3, 1636, and also received the right to use other land for planting purposes. He was called "the miller" to distinguish him from three other Thomas Lincolns who lived in Hingham, Massachusetts about the same time, one of whom was called the weaver, another the husbandman and another the cooper. He was probably born in the latter part of the year 1600. He died in Taunton, Massachusetts sometime between the date of his will August 28, 1685, and the date of the inventory of his estate, October 14, 1683. According to the Probate records in Plymouth County the will was presented for probate March 5, 1684. He married twice. The name of his first wife is not known, but this marriage probably occurred in England in 1627. His second wife was Elizabeth Harvey, widow of Francis Street of Taunton. They were married December 10, 1665. He went to Taunton, Massachusetts in 1649, and in 1652 removed his family there and established large milling interests.
