Biography

Jonathon is listed along with his father and brother in Surry County Tithables.


Notes

Phil Phillips MD
I have his name as John, not Jonathan. I can't find it Documented anywhere as Jonathon.

John Thompson, born Abt. 1661; died January 1698/99 in England. He married Elizabeth Salway

John's will names his brothers and sisters in 1698.

From Book 5, p 185 in Surry Co., Leg. to brother, Samuel Thompson, 50 pounds. after decease of my wife, 50 lbs. more. To wife the labor of certain slaves for life. Brother, William Thompson. Sisters, Catherine and Elizabeth, negroes. (Brother Samuel, not living in Surry Co., ) Desires that Samuel Alsobrooke, son of Samuel Alsobrooke, deceased, be religiously brought up b Exeerx. Friends, Maj Arthur Allen and Capt. Francis Clements, each a ring. To two brothers-in=law, Mr. Robert Paine and Mr. Robert Catlett, each a ring. To wife, certain things given to her by will of Mr. John Salway, deceased. Wife, Elizabeth Thompson, is made Exerx. Made 2 Aug 1698. Prob.: 7 Nov 1699, presented at Court at Southwarke. Wit: Geo Williams, Jos,Case, Eliza. Prier, Mary Allen, Wm Foreman, Richard Holleman. [1]

He made his will prior to his voyage to England. BUT there seems to be evidence that he made a second will after arriving in England in which he gave his brother William Thompson 100 pounds, sterling, when 21.[1]

Boddie says that he served as Burgess from Surry in 1692-95-96.[2]

What page on the Tithables has John listed. It is a pay book. can only see the first 15 pages of over 200. I did find Mr. William Thompson listed "Lower part of Southwarke Parish Taken 1670. Pg. 10"

His will does not mention any children so I can surmise he did not have any. It seems his will was probated in Virginia. Was he buried in England???
