Got the death certificate for Peter Thompson. It clearly indicates his father is Edward Thompson and his mother is Mary Mattingly, both born in KY. It gives his birth date as Feb 12, 1855. This is different from what I have seen elsewhere. He died Nov 16, 1920 in Louisville, Clay Co, IL. It gives his place of birth as KY-but I believe that brother William Thompson, who supplied the information is wrong. The obituary states that Peter died in the same house he was born in. The census gives Peter's state of birth as IL, though his older brother William was born in KY.
