• 1744 - named in the fee book of Col. James Wood. at Frederick County, VA.
• 19 Mar 1747 - sold land in Paxtang to William Peters prior to moving to Virginia.
• 14 Aug 1748 - obtained 270 acres on the Great South Branch at Frederick County, VA, (later Hampshire Co VA; now Hardy Co WV). The farm adjoined his good friend and kinsman Mr. Harris. Perhaps his wife was a HARRIS. Oldest son George later patented the property because Thomas had not fulfilled the provisions of the contract.
