Thomas Swannn Jr. (ca.1650-1704) was a planter, militia officer and politician in the Colony of Virginia who represented first his native Surry County and later Nansemond County in the House of Burgesses.[1] [2]
Born to the widowed Mary Mansfield and her planter and politician husband Thomas Swann, he had an elder half-brother Samuel Swann who administered his father's estate with his stepmother.
He was elected sheriff of Surry county in 1697. Surry County voters elected him as one of their representatives in the House of Burgesses in 1695, re-elected him in 1696 and again elected him in 1698.[3] Both times he won election to the House (but of course not when he won re-election), Swann succeeded his elder half brother Samuel Swann, who eventually moved to North Carolina.
He married Elizabeth (Eliza), the daughter of William Thompson of Nansemond county, and their eldest son Thompson Swann, became clerk of Cumberland County, serving from 1754 until 1781.
He died in 1704 or 1705.
