DR ALLEN L. THOMPSON: the late Clara L. Thompson Cook was his dau. The late Dr Allan R. Thompson of Troy was his son. The youngest dau. of Dr Allan L. Thompson, Minnie Thompson still resides in Troy.

(Not the same man as Dr James Thompson also given on page 2, Jan issue T.F.M.) John Thompson (by Alvin Thompson) - Quite interested in Sketches, I have been asked to tell more about Washingtonville. Well, think I will commence before that was here. My grandfather John Thompson, came here from Washington Co. in 1816, with his family of children (mostly boys & girls). He settled on a farm now owned by George Knollin. He lived in the first house he erected for two winters without doors or windows, hanging up blankets at the openings. In 1838 my father bought the place where he lived & died & where I was born & lived over 75 yrs. My daughter & grandson were born in the same house & within the same month that I was. My uncle George Thompson married Maria Smith, half sister of George & John Smith. Capt. James Thompson sailed on Lake Ontario ten yrs. He built the block on Railroad Street facing East First St. where the meat market & hardware store is now. Three other boys went west. I learned to spell in the old brick school house DR JAMES THOMPSON, additional imformation: The family of Dr. James Thompson included Allen Thompson; William Thompson, who left no decendants; James Thompson, who left no descendants; Jesse Thomp- son, who became a dentist & had a family; Catherine, who was b-June 8, 1819 & was married to Martin Gillett; Maria who married >> --part1_40889227.24748544_boundary--
