British Calvinists: Thomas Brooks (1608-1680)

Little is known of the life of Thomas Brooks (1608-1680). He was a graduate of Emmanuel College, Cambridge. He spent some time at sea, possibly as a chaplain.  He was a minister at Thomas Apostle's, London. 

He moved to St Margaret's Fish-street Hill, London and adopted a closed position on baptism and communion.
