Early Life and Education

The Norfleet family, originally of English descent, immigrated to America around the 17th century. One of the earliest recorded references to them can be found in a land grant in Virginia Colony on October 22, 1666 that refers to “Thomas Norfleet.”

Following this grant, two more were issued to Thomas Northfleet (also called “North Fleete”) on 25 October 1695 and “Thomas Norfleet, Junr,” dated 30 September 1718. These grants appear to pertain to the same individual since both were for land patented in the same year.
