Thomas Crooke (priest)
Thomas Crooke (c.1545–1598) was a sixteenth-century English clergyman, who was noted for his strongly Calvinist views. He was the father of several children, including the lawyer and politician Sir Thomas Crooke, 1st Baronet, founder of the town of Baltimore, County Cork, and of Helkiah Crooke, Court physician to King James I. Life He was born at Cransley in Northamptonshire. From his will, we know that he had several siblings and that his father after his mother's death remarried a Mrs. Joyner, who was still alive in 1595. His son Thomas in his will of 1629 left a legacy to "my good old Aunt Hudson", who was probably the elder Thomas's sister; she was still alive in 1635. Sir George Croke, one of the High Court judges who heard the Case of Ship Money, is sometimes referred to as his cousin, but the exact connection between them is unclear.
