The census record was right but , He was Daniel & Sarah's 10th child. I had my information open and Henry Thomas was at the top of the page. I hope I don't confuse others by this. Henry and Esther's 6th child was Robert T. Thomas born 8 Jan 1821 and died 28 Feb 1892. Robert T. Thomas did marry Anne Catherine Earikson. It might interest you to know that Simon Thomas Jr's wife Priscilla married Owen Slaughter Jr after Simon's death. about 1837 Priscilla and her son John Thomas along with her daughter Sarah Thomas who had married D.M. Slaughter in Richmond moved on to AL and MS along with others of the Thomas and Covington family in a covered Wagon train. My Grandfather John Thomas Slaughter was born in Winston Co MS 2 Feb 1838. He moved on to Texas later but his sister Rachel Slaughter married Alfred Reed and they lived in Kemper Co but were living in Noxubee Co before 1880. I wonder if these cousins got to see one another in those years Christine. What was your grandmother's name? I wonder if I might have corresponded with her over the years?

Surnames: Thomas, Love, Flack, Loyd, Crawford, Hathorn, Covington, Campbell, Pouncy Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/QKB.2ACI/369.1.1 Message Board Post: Louise, First, thanks for the information. I had a couple of the burials but not all that you supplied. Also, you mentioned in a previous post that Robert Sands Thomas that married Mary Pouncey was the son of Henry and Esther Thomas. I have some information that a Malcolm Gardner of VA sent to my grandmother about 40 years ago. He states that Robert, son of Henry and Esther, married Ann Earkson. He has Robert who married a Pouncy, as the son of Daniel and Sarah Covington. As I mentioned before, I'm finding many conflicts in the Thomas papers I have from various sources (several of them published). Do you have anything that might clarify this? Ann Jordan Love, Henry's first wife, died in Richmond, NC. I do not know her burial place. I know nothing about the second wife except that she was "Widow Flack." Do you know anything about her, such as her given name? Here is some information below regarding Henry T. This explains his burial. Found it in my late grandmother's files. It's very interesting. In a notarized statement by Victoria Thomas, daughter of Daniel Holcomb Thomas, she states that her father told her that Henry T. Thomas and children came from Richmond, NC to Noxubee "...by Wagon Train. The Love family, Campbell family, Crawford family, and my grandfather and his children came to Noxubee County together." Victoria further states: "At the beginning of the Civil War grandpa, Henry, was living with his oldest son, Charles Murrah Thomas. At this time Charles was not married and they were keeping batch. Just before 1860 Henry's sons had a division in the household. Charles took his father to care for and my father took his only sister, Rachel Agnes, as his responsibility. He and Rachel Agnes boarded in the home of a Mr. Loyd. Daniel was in the mercantile business in Summerville or Gholson. He hired Hugh Hathorn of Louisville, MS as a bookkeeper. He and Rachel fell in love and married. Charles and Daniel fought in the Civil War as did Hugh Hathorn. "After the sons went to War, Henry's mind became so deranged the family had to send him to the Insane Hospital in Jackson, where he died in about 1863 or 1864. The sons were away at War and relatives had no way of bringing him home, so he is buried in an unmarked grave in Jackson, Mississippi."

I descend through his son Simon Jr. I looked back through my Thomas information and have that Henry Thomas son of Daniel and Sarah was born 27 Dec 1781 in Richmond Co. N.C. He married his 2nd cousin Ester Thomas the daughter of William "Ram Billy" Henry joined the Morman church 9 June 1836 when he was 55 years old.He moved to Nauvee, Ill sometime about 1840 and established residence there. He later moved on to Salt Lake City where he died in June 1867. I have information on several of his children but all I have on His son Henry is that he was born about 1812 and he married 12 Oct 1827 Mary B. Haynes. But if this is right he was only 15 at the time and you have down that her name was Sarah Haynes. ====== Then I have the information also on Elijah Thomas born abt 1774 and died 27 Aug 1836 married to Rachel Roe. She was the daughter of John Roe. Then the rest of my information takes me on down through your next two generations. I have that Henry T. moved to Noxubee Co. Elijah and Henry born 1781 are brothers. ===This is the information I have on Henry & EstherThomas 's son Robert Sands Thomas, phsician born 1793 in Richmond Co.

I got lots of good advice from many people re census records--I tried to thank every one personally, but I'm sure I missed a couple of people! One of the nicer things about genealogy is how generous every one is with their knowledge--and I wanted to say thanks for every one's help! Gary Taylor Biloxi
