Special thanks to the person who sent me the lead on Sarah Thornton buried in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa that she found in ancestry.com. Turns out it is Sarah Thornton Bird, who married Wellington Bird in 1841 in Bloomsburg, Northumberland County, PA, then moved to Fredericksburg, Oh and then to Mt. Pleasant, Iowa in 1849. They had 9 children, all named with Thornton as their middle name. In the county history for Henry County Iowa it says she was born in 1811 in Bloomsburg to Eli Thornton (first time I have EVER seen his name in print!) a revered member of the PA Legistlature! Wow! Even my uncle was impressed! No reference to his wife, but we're slowly putting together a family group. Her obit on 14 Aug 1895 gave reference to an elderly brother in his 80s still living, a sister, and a 1/2 brother. I also know of another sister Julia Ann Thornton who married James Hobert in Muscatine, IA in 1844. Again, thank you! Anyone needing the Bird information or this line of Thorntons, let me know. I copied everything I could find and all the remaining Thorntons in Mt. Pleasant are descendants. -- Dr. Diana J.
