From "Encyclopedia of Virginia Biography",
"Thomas Bushrod - born 1604, was one of the justices of York county and a burgess in 1658 and 1659. He was a Quaker and in his will dated December 18, 1676, he forbids "common prayers to be read at his grave." He was a brother of Richard Bushrod, ancestor of Judge Bushrod Washington."
From "Judicial Cases concerning American Slavery and the Negro, Vol. I":
"The other important transition case [38] is that of 'A Mulata named Manuel' whom 'Mr. Thomas Bushrod . . bought . . as a Slave for Ever but in September 1644 the said Servant was by the Assembly adjudged no Slave but to serve as other Christian servants do and was freed in September 1665.' But 'other Christian servants' did not serve apprenticeships of twenty-one years. [39] Furthermore, though Manuel's status as a Christian servant was admitted in 1644 and continued till 1665, he would not have been classed as such in 1670. By an act of that year, [40] the term [41] is reserved for white servants, in spite of the fact that colored servants of the Christian faith had not become extinct."
