Thomas was born, and died, at "Tuckahoe" plantation. He was the much-younger half-brother (by his father's second wife, Gabriella Jones Harvie Randolph Brockenbrough) of Thomas Mann Randolph, Jr., Congressman, Governor of Virginia, and son-in-law of Thomas Jefferson.

His mother Gabriella was the daughter of prominent Richmond lawyer John Harvie. After Thomas' father's death in 1793, Gabriella remarried in 1797 to John Brockenbrough (1777-1838), who built and owned the Richmond residence now known as the White House of the Confederacy.

Thomas was commissioned a 1st Lieutenant, 2nd U.S. Artillery, on 14 May 1812, at the start of the War of 1812, and was later promoted Captain. He was captured on 26 June 1813, was later released, and resigned his commission on 11 April 1814.

Thomas married (1) Harriet Vaughan Wilson (1796-1822) in 1813, four children; (2) Sarah Brown (?-bef. 1824) in 1822, no children; and (3) Lucinda Anne Patterson (1801-1882) in 1824, ten children. He shares his grave with Lucinda.
