Looking for ANY help possible, Trying to research my Father's family, here's what I know: James Cardruss Thompson (my father) brn 5-29-1908 Rising Fawn, one sister Edith Eugene Thompson brn. 3-18-1905 Rising Fawn. Their parents were William Oscar Thompson and Ola Long Thompson at the time of their deaths 1920's and or 1930's they were living in Chattanoga Tn. possibly East Lake area or East Ridge. Ola Long Thompson: it isn't known to us if Long is her given middle name that she kept after marriage or if that were her maiden name, my father was known to have referred to Grandpa O'Neal and it is thought that this is her side of the family possible her father or maternal grandfather. And my mother thinks that it was at Grandpa O'Neal's home that my father was born. William and Ola should show up on census data from 1900 and possibly 1880. We don't know where they were buried but likely Dade County. Anyone, any help will be greatly appreciated! I'm Tommy Thompson from Rockwood Tn. email [email protected]

Hi Tommy, Have searched my data base but don't find your Thompsons but I have a number of ancestors who were in Dade County, GA and Marion County, TN, as well as Dekalb and Jackson counties in AL, that were O'Neals. If you have any information on the O'Neal's, there is a possibility I may have some information that connects. Let me know if you have any names, dates, etc. Bill Bill & Emily O'Neal 73 Surrey Trail, Rome, GA 30161-5946 (706) 290-0710 Check our web site at: http://home.earthlink.net/~billoneal/index.html ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2001 9:27 AM Subject: Re: [GADADE] 1850 Dade Cty and Walker Cty Census > Looking for ANY help possible, Trying to research my Father's family, here's what I know: James Cardruss Thompson (my father) brn 5-29-1908 Rising Fawn, one sister Edith Eugene Thompson brn. 3-18-1905 Rising Fawn.
