This Thomas Todd settled on the Severn River--Annapolis--in 1651, having come from Virginia. On 7/12/1658 and 6/14/1661 he was commissioned Justice of Anne Arundel Couty, Md. Their son Thomas Todd married Sarah and had a Lancelot and a Richard, and died 1677.
Thomas Todd, Shipwright, settled in Middle Neck Hundred of Anne Arundel County on ground which Annapolis Town was later laid out. He came up from Lower Norfolk County, Virginia, prior to 1651. His heirs intermarried with the gentry, notably the Dorsey, Warfield and other families of substance
Ancestry gives age as 23 in 1637
Captain Thomas Todd was a captain and shipowner. Among the ships he owned were the "Augustine" and "Virginia"
Thomas died c. 1671 at Anne Arundel County Maryland.[5]
The records are rather negative relative to his death and the settlement of his estate, but he certainly died shortly after the reaffirmation of his patent "Todd's Harbour".
There is evidence that he died testate, but his will was apparently not recorded or the probate records were lost for that period. If he had died intestate, his eldest son would have inherited the entire landed estate. As it happened, John the minor son possessed "Todd upon Dravan".
