Do you by chance have the children from this marriage? I'm looking for a DeWitt or Dwight Thomas, born in 1820 in CT. He married either a Lucy or a Melissa. ( I have Lucy from records of a daughter, someone else fould Melissa from land records.) Daughter Ella Emogene was born in Hartford County, CT, in 1851. She married a John M. Ellsworthe. When her father died in NE, she wrote a letter to the county stating she was his daughter and she was born in CT. DeWitt (Dwight) Went from CT to IA, there he remarried and had two sons, Edward and Charles Victor. After they were born he moved to Otoe County, NE, where he died on Nov. 1, 1870. I am trying to find parents or brothers and sisters for DeWitt (Dwight) Thomas. Thank you for any help you can give.

I don't have a Benjamin or Z*** Thomas in my line (that I know of), however, my THOMAS's were located in Chester County Pennsylvania in the early 1800's (1820's / possibly earlier). My ggg-grandmother was born Ann THOMAS in 1811. She had a brother David THOMAS. Ann married Lewis CHRISTY in 1828. David THOMAS died in 1833, and Ann died in 1838. Have either of you come across these names in your search? I have been told by another researcher that there was a Benjamin THOMAS in Chester County Pennsylvania around that time, however, I think he survived to be an adult. Thanks, Mark

Looking to locate African American Thomas' from Prince William County, Virginia. I might be the only one looking for this type of information on this list. I've seen several posting referring to location, but none specifying race, which too can be of importance. Peace, Dena

Does anyone have any info re: the ancestors of my new-found ancestor, ELIAS THOMAS? He was b. Apr. 3, 1773 in I think, Ridgefield, Fairfield Co, CT. He m. Jane Forrester. I'd love to find her ancestors too (I have her father's name - Arthur Forrester who m. Jemima Keeler). Arthur was a Revolutionary War soldier. Any and all info will be GREATLY appreciated.

Dear Linda: Most important element missing: location, location, location. Betty in Idaho

Hi, I have a Benjamin Thomas in my line but apparently died in infancy...b. 1/20/1810 d. 2/1810. He must have had a twin because I have the same dates for Henry S. Thomas. Anyhow, what really struck my eye was the Zenas Thomas since I have a Zeno Thomas in my line b. 6/13/1816 d. 10/16/1840. Linda Layman

I am looking for information on a Sarah Jane Thomas b. 28 1867 in Norfolk WV. She died 23 May in Seattle WA. She married 1) Leonard Franklin Hicklin in Aug 1880 in Vancouver WA and 2) a Mr. Richardson. I am looking for information on her parents a Haywood Thomas and Hannah Louise Hash. I am new to your list and would appreciate any information anyone can offer. Thanks!

Does anyone have this gentleman in their line? He is in the Towanda, Bradford Co. PA census in 1830, next to my relative Zenas Thomas. I am wondering if they were related and how? Thanks! Rebecca Thomas Seehusen Hoover, AL rtseehusen@aol.com

Just starting, really, and your data posted here has been a big help. Quid pro quo: here's a tip for you: Are you aware of the direct descent connection between Margaret Thomas (d.o. William T. & Abigail Ruck) and President George Bush? Details are on Brian Tompsett's Genealogy of the US Presidents page: http://www.dcs.hull.ac.uk/public/genealogy/presidents/ Enjoy! -R.

Hello, Oh, I am sorry! I should have said the location. He lived in or around the Clark Summit area, Lackawana county, Pa. He died in the Clark Summit hospital.

He was relation to a Willard Thomas, whom I have no information about, yet. Thanks Wendy
