Dear Donna: Thank you so much for the information. Since my William signed an employment contract in 1820 to be an overseer, I guess he was born in the late 1700s. Alexander could be his brother. In 1830, his son Nelson was born. In the 1840s, after his death in 1838, he was the subject of then Senator Robert Allston's re-election campaign. I would deeply appreciate any more data on those Thompsons. Thank you. Diana
