Thomas Herrick

Thomas Herrick, sometimes spelled Thomas Hayrick or Thomas Heyrick or Thomas Heyricke was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses, the elected lower house of the colonial Virginia General Assembly, from the "Upper Part of" Elizabeth City, Virginia, later Elizabeth [City County, Virginia], now Hampton, Virginia, in 1629-1630.
In a note in the Richmond Standard quoted in other sources, Henry Herrick, burgess for Warwick [County, Virginia] in 1644-1645, is said to be a nephew of Thomas Herrick.
On March 24, 1630, Herrick and six other burgesses were ordered by Act II of the assembly of 1629-1630 to inspect the site for a fort at Old Point Comfort at the extreme tip of the Virginia Peninsula at Hampton Roads and to agree with Captain Samuel Mathews for the building of the fort.
