Hi List, Someone mentioned Osman Thomas as son of Hudson Thomas on 1880 Census. I don't have much information on Osman's generation but I do have for Hudson Thomas, whose full name was Thomas Hudson Thomas. He was born 5 September 1823 in Webster, Westmoreland, PA. He died at Braddock, PA in 1905. He was married to Asenath Bales Brown in Webster, PA 20 January 1853. Asenath was born in 1832 in Webster and died in 1877 near West Newton, PA. They had 6 children: Anna Bell, Harry, John Osman who died in 1908 at Kees Rocks, Charles Albert died in 1902 at Braddock, Edgar Cowall died Sept. 1909 in Mexico, Flora Thomas Colmary Thomas Hudson Thomas was the son of Benjamin Thomas and Hannah Alexander. Benjamin Thomas was born 27 Sept 1787 near Wellingborough, Burlington Co., NJ. He was the son of Thomas Thomas and Mary Grimes. Thomas Thomas was born 30 Jan 1761 in Wellingborough, Burlington Co, NJ. He was the son of David Thomas and Margaret Lucas. Go to www.FamilySearch.org on the net and Benjamin, Hannah , Mary and Thomas are well documented. Information was given to my grandfather to record for the Thomas reunions that were held annually beginning in 1908 at Rehobath Church in Rostraver Twp. Also there is a book David Thomas and His Descendents that is a bio of this family. Please forward this on to the interested party. I canned their email address ,realizing my mistake later. Jan
