In 1667 and 1683 he was deeded parts of his father's original Morattico Creek land by his brother Gregory. He apparently amassed a considerable amount of land and wealth. Between 1682 and 1691 he and his wife were willed over 1,000 acres of land on Totaskey Creek by her father. In 1691 he also bought, for 14,000 pounds of tobacco, another 400 acre plantation near Totaskey Mill that and belonged to his father-in-law Nichols.

The children of Thomas and Jane Glas(s)cock: all three sons were "of age" by February 22, 1665 because the earmarks of their cattle and hogs were recorded on that date.
