I copied some information on this Thomas Thompson (mostly his descendants) last week at the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library. If you give me your address, I'll send you a copy. If anyone can provide more information, I would be interested, as I feel that my ancester, James Dunbar Thompson, is somehow related, since two of his children have similar names as does Thomas' and he is also from Hartford Cty, CT. James' wife was Kate Alderman, whose parents were from Simsbury/Farmington, CT and also went to Trumbull Cty in 1804. The librarian suggested that perhaps my James is Thomas' nephew and traveled with his uncle and his family. I've also forwarded this to the OHTrumbull Cty Mailing List. Hopefully, someone will be able to help us. ---------- > From: Captwo3@aol.com > To: THOMPSON-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: [THOMPSON-L] Thomas THOMPSON in CT > Date: Monday, November 02, 1998 10:00 PM > > To all, > The following is from: > > Historical Collections of Mahoning Valley, Ohio > > "SETH PERKINS, of Kinsman, was born in Hartland, Hartford County, Conn., > February 29, 1780.
