Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Brown (27 May 1750 – 3 August 1825) was a British planter and military officer. Intending to become a quiet colonial landowner, instead he lived a turbulent and combative career. During the American War of Independence, he was a prominent Loyalist in the Province of Georgia and served as an officer in the King's Carolina Rangers. Following the American victory in the war, Brown was exiled first to East Florida, and later to Saint Vincent in the Caribbean.
