Is there a newspaper in Hamptonville that would have announced his death? The articles we did find on Thomas were in The Landmark, I do not know if that newspaper would have serviced the Hamptonville area. His family was unique in a way as he had 7 children, but his last 3 were triplets who all entered the Civil war and all made it out safe and sound to live to a ripe old age. The articles we have come across mostly deal with the triplet sons and just skirt on Thomas. I am trying to think outside the box and am hoping Hamptonville hold a small secret that will help us. Your help is most appreciated Sue Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
