Does anyone have information on William Thomas, b. NC, shown in the 1850 Coosa County, Al Census, 57, with wife Betsy, 33, b. GA, and children all under 12, born in AL? I believe him and first wife to be the father of my James M. Thomas, b. 1818 in NC. It is possible that his first wife is Irene or Arrena, since James M. named second daughter this name and followed traditional naming practices otherwise. James M. Thomas had brothers Phillip and Alonzo (or Elonzo) and possibly had sister Permelia who married Thomas Dunlap. I have much information from James M. Thomas forward, but am hitting a brick wall in finding his parents. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm looking for more information on Matilda THOMAS who was raised in Canyonville, Douglas County, Oregon and married Joseph JACQUES 9/1868. At that time she was over age 18, but i do not know her birth or death date, or family. She may have died prior to 1885; Iknow that Joseph did. She and Joseph had two sons, Joseph Andrew (born abt. 1870) and Sidney (b. abt. 1871) who married HANKS sisters, Fannie and Mary, respectively. Joseph Andrew and Fannie had the following children: Ethel Mae, Guy, Joe, Bert, and Mildred. All were in the Douglas Co area of Oregon. The reason I am assuming that Matilda died prior to 1885 is that there are guardianship papers for the sons that were filed by a stepmother Rebecca after Joseph's death. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Elaine

Hello Craig and everyone I don't know on the list yet. I am a new member to the list. My Thomas line is from Peleg Thomas - one of our family's D.A.R. lineages - who married Molly Bartlett and who lived in Lebanon, Connecticut - believe to the ripe old age of 98 oar so through daughter Clarissa Thomas who married Joseph Metcalf. Does anyone else share this family group? I know quite a bit about Clarissa and Joseph but not about her siblings nor parents and the Thomas family. I do know about the Metcalfs - that is the Michael Metcalf line. Peleg and Molly had children: Clarissa, John, Violette, Molly, Sarah and son Peleg who died in 1806 in childhood. I don't know what happened to Clarissa's other siblings or much about the Thomas' in Lebanon. Peleg's father was John Bartlett. Molly's line comes from the Bartlett/Warren Mayflower line. My Thomas line ends with Clarissa so there may not be very many Thomas' that follow this family line as the only surviving son seems to be John. Look forward to finding cousins researching these lines. Penni I do have a few on Peleg and a copy of a sweet letter that Clarissa wrote. Would like to learn more about Peleg. He had a son, Peleg, too and I think I have the names of the children but not who they all married.

Regulators in Clay Co., IL.: THOMAS Harris Posey township, Clay county. *********************************** Indian Settlements: EARLY SETTLEMENTS AND PIONEER NOTES. The earliest settlements in the county were necessarily made on the higher lands, largely on the bluffs and knolls along the river and other streams. At that day the lowlands and flats were entirely too wet for settlement and cultivation. The pioneers planted their habitations upon the seemingly most inviting and promising dry spots, shunning, as prac- tically worthless, the lands which by the lapse of time and the arts of civilization, have become the most desirable and valuable. Usually, a spring was sought, the location of which determined the point of settle- rient. Many of these originally preferred and selected sites for homes are now the least valuable lands in the county. An additional reason for the first settler, or squatter, choosing to plant his primitive cabin on the elevations, or bluffs, adjacent to the streams was that such a location afforded him the more convenient facilities for fishing and trapping, his reliance, in part, for a livelihood during the first years of his experience in the wilderness. It is generally conceded that to David Thomas belongs the honor of having made the original settlement on Eel river, on the bluff on which his son, James P. Thomas, lived up to the time of his death and where James M. Campbell now resides. As nearly as can be ascertained, he came there in the fall of 1818. Two years prior to that time, Mr. Thomas came to White river, near the present site of Spencer, and was also the first white man to settle within the bounds of Owen county. In the spring of 1819, Samuel Rizley came from Knox county and located at the point which we have already designated. Here, on the 13th day of February, 1820, was born to him a daughter, Eliza Rizley, the first white child born within the territory of the county, who was later the wife of Simeon Stacy, residing on the river, near the place of her birth.etc...yada, yada, yada...more can be read at <A HREF="ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/in/clay/misc/early2.txt"> early2.txt at ftp.rootsweb.com (FTP)</A>.

Looking for ANYTHING on Mrs. Annie THOMAS who put her daughter, Gracie, up for adoption in 1884 in Tarrant, co. TX. Do not know about the father none was listed on the adoption papers, which I have. Annie MAY have been from MO or may have lived in ST.Albans, VT around 1875 or so with a William THOMAS, but I can not prove this. Gracie was at least 1/2 Indian and her mother probably gave away other kids around the same time. ANY adoptions around the same time would interest me also. Thanx, Brigitte
