Captain Thomas Harwood (died 1652) was a Virginia soldier, landowner and politician. He served multiple terms as a burgess in the 1630s and 1640s, and was "one of the chieff of the Mutinous Burgesses" who expelled Governor Sir John Harvey in 1635. He was Speaker of the House of Burgesses 1647–49, and was named to the Council shortly before his death in 1652.[1]

Notes
- Kukla, pp. 45-46
gollark: What I'd like, ideally, is maybe something like IRC, but with global email-like accounts and serverside history/bouncer capabilities (IRCv3 has this but no big networks run it as far as I know).
gollark: Oh, it did randomly break.
gollark: But it doesn't implement the full protocol despite years of development.
gollark: I run Dendrite, assuming it didn't randomly break at some point (I haven't checked), and that at least seems to have been improved to not use that much RAM *most* of the time.
gollark: I also don't like that Matrix is an unusably complex protocol requiring giant and resource-hungry server software even for small installs.
