- Thomas HOLBROOK served under Capt. Isaac Johnson in King Philip's war and presumably was in the Narragansett Fort battle. For this service his heirs received a share in the land granted to soldiers at Narragansett No. 5 (Bedford, NH), in 1733. !Massachusetts and Maine Families, 291 Thomas (2) Holbrook lived at Weymouth and Braintree, Mass. In 1653 he bought a farm of 53 acres in Braintree, and later became the owner of much real estate. He made his will 25 July 1695 and administration on his estate was granted his widow, Joanna, 19 Aug 1697, and his eldest son Thomas. In the will he mentions Thomas as his eldest son, and Peter, to whom he gives "all that estate of lands and meadows in Mendon which he had formerly purchased from his brother William, part of a saw-mill in Mendon, ten acres in Braintree purchased of Solomon CURTIS, or in lieu of ten acres 40 pounds sterling, and 10 pounds sterling within four years of his decease. !Cutter's "N E Families !additional source; The Vinton Memorial, John Adams Vinton, 1858.
