Thomas Everard
Thomas Everard (died 1781) served as mayor of Williamsburg, Virginia from 1766 to 1767.
Everard was born about 1719 in St. Paul's Parish, Shadwell (one of the Tower Hamlets, next to London). At the age of ten he was admitted to Christ's Hospital, a school established for the children of the poor and homeless in London (His father, William, was a skinner by trade). There he was trained, along with all his fellow students, to read, write, and maintain accounts. In January 1735, he was discharged as an apprentice to Matthew Kemp, a Williamsburg, Virginia, merchant. Once his period of apprenticeship was through, he was appointed clerk of Elizabeth City County court.
Everard purchased a house and property in the 1750s. This house still stands in present day Williamsburg.
Everard served in many other public offices. He was the clerk of the York County court from 1745 until his death in 1781. He also was a deputy clerk of the General Court, clerk of the Secretary of the Colony's office, and was the mayor of Williamsburg serving twice from 1766 to 1767 and 1771 to 1772.
Everard was a member of the Court of Directors of the Public Hospital. He was married to Diana Robinson of York County and had two daughters -- Frances, who married the Rev. James Horrocks of Bruton Parish Church and president of the College of William and Mary, and Martha, who married Dr. Isaac Hall of Petersburg, Virginia.
