I am also a descendant of Thomas, Jr. and Elizabeth Rose twice. Through their granddaughter Frances who married their grandson Thomas. I then descend through Martin who married Nancy Ann _____ and his daughter Susan J. who married Jesse H. Fitzgerald. I am working on a DAR supplemental on both Thomas, Jr. and Thomas, Sr. If you or anyone has good sources for any of this line would really appreciate hearing from you. Too, will be glad to share my info. Just joined the Dodson list about a week ago and have been amazed in the good info so far. Merry Christmas Liz Pierce
