XXXi. CAVALIERS AND PIONEERS: ANCIENT PLANTERS: INTRODUCTION

The following list includes those who are known to have come to Virginia before the close of the year 1616, survived the massacre, appear in the Muster of 1624/5 as then living in Virginia, and to most of whom the term "Ancient Planter" may with justification be applied.

Thomas Willoby (Willoughby). Came to Virginia in 1610, aged 9. Lt. and Capt. Commissioner for Elizabeth City. and in 1639 presiding justice of Lower Norfolk. Burgess, 1627/8; Upper Part of Elizabeth Ctiy, 1629/30; 1631/2. Appointed to the Council in 1639. A number of patents issued in his name. In Lower Norfolk Co., Aug. 16, 1658, a commission of administration was granted to Mr. Tho. Willoughby on the estate of his father Capt. Tho. Willoughby, deceased in England.
==
Captain Thomas Willoughby (1601 - 1664) was elected to the House of Burgesses from Elizabeth City in 1632 and from Lower Norfolk County in 1639; helped Henry Sewell establish a church at Sewell's Point in 1640; Thomas2 Willoughby born in 1632, educated in London and was Lieutenant Colonel in Virginia, and Thomas3, of Elizabeth River in County Lower Norfolk, VA, "gentleman, sole son and heir of the Hon. Lieut. Colonel Thomas Willoughby" of the same Parish. The first Thomas Willoughby owned land prior to 1626 and built a manor house in 1635 just north of Mason Creek Road; Willoughby's Point wasn't known as a "Spit" (peninsula) as yet, deemed to be formed in a 1749 hurricane. The estate (360 acres) was sold by heirs in 1826. Willoughby was largely undeveloped until the 1900's, when the Jamestown Exposition of 1907 led to more cottages, the Hampton Roads Yacht Club and a small marina. Willoughby, like Ocean View was annexed by Norfolk in 1923.

Willoughby takes its name from Captain Thomas Willoughby, who arrived in Virginia in 1610 at the age of nine as a passenger on the ship Prosperous

===
1624 -- Thomas Willoughby granted 500 acres by King James I (present-day Ocean View).
1636 - William Willoughby granted 200 acres by King Charles I (present-day downtown Norfolk).
===
His wife was named Alice (last name unknown) and his son, Thomas, was born in 1632 and his daughter, Elizabeth, in 1635. (3) His wife may have been Alice Layton, daughter of John Layton and Ann Burras who were the first English marriage on American soil in 1608 in Virginia. Elizabeth married before her brother, thus she may have been the eldest. This could mean that her father, Thomas married about 1628-1630. Out of an 18 year period, he spent 12 years old of colony. Much time was spent in England and probably Barbados.
on a deposition dated 26 November 1650, he signed it Captain Thomas Willoughby, gentleman, aged 52. He died April 15, 1657 (age 57 or 59) in Al Halowes, Barking, England. (3) (7) He left an estate in Barbados. (7)
