Thomas Taylor had arrived in Virginia by 1626 when he was one of the original patentees for Elizabeth City County, Virginia. In 1643 he took up 600 acres in Warwick County where he lived . Thomas Taylor, described as a "mariner" in patent, was probably a sea captain of Bristol, England, who later retired in Warwick County. Harrison Fairfax provides excellent information on him in his "Virginia Carys" and informs that no evidence has yet appeared to identify this Taylor family definitely in England. Thomas wife is not known. Capt Thomas Taylor died after 1652 in Warwick County, VA |
