\u2014<\/em>THOMAS BARROW2<\/sup> (1) (JOHN1<\/sup> BARROW) was born in England about 1640, and died 1684 in Surry County, Virginia. He married ELIZABETH NEE UNKNOWN.<\/p>\n

Notes for THOMAS BARROW (1): It is fairly certain that this Thomas who is labeled for identification purposes, Thomas 1, was born in England about 1640 and came to the Virginia colony before he was 15 years old. It is known that in 1654 that Major Abraham Word received a grant of land for the importation of 8 persons including Mr. Thomas Barrow believed to be from Lancashire, England. The Mr. Indicates that Thomas was of considerable statue and certainly not an indentured servant. He was a carpenter and assisted in building the famous Bacon\u2019s Castle in Virginia, which is open to the public today. An inventory of his estate listed in addition to Negroes, land and household items there were many carpenter tools and 3 thousand eight penny nales and 2 thousand 6 penny nales.<\/p>\n

Thomas (1) died when he was about 45 years old leaving sons Thomas, SR and Simon and his wife Elizabeth who married George Blow, JR about 2 months after the death of Thomas (1). Elizabeth would have at least one child, George Blow, III by her second marriage.<\/p>\n
