I would be inerestd in gettimnh copy of Thomas Family Book. C. W. Stephens, Cwynns8@wmconnect.com </HTML>

I may have missed it, but where is this Thomas family from? Mine came from Maine and Vt. to Wisconsin and Iowa. pat smith

Under Everton Publishers I found these two, but there are probably more if you posed your question differently. I only searched under "The ThomasFamily" I am not touting any book company but these two have reproduced a lot of books on family History.

It seems that someone a few months ago sent to a list I was on a site that you could find old lost books on, has anyone seen this site? My Thomas line is Catherine Thomas b. in NC abt 1803 married James Adams ad had in NC Joh Quincy Adams 1825, Samuel Madison Adams 1826, and Barsheba Adams 1831.Then they went by wagon train to Ray County, MO and had: Mary Jane 1835, Bejami Franklin 1839 (mine), Cleopatra Ann 27 Aug 1841, Henry Clay 1843, George Washigton, 1847. I have lots of information o this family, just not any on James And Catherine THOMAS Adams. I am going to have my hubby takae a D&A pretty soon on the Adams line, but dont know what to do on the Thomas one. Rose Adams in CA.

What is the location of the Thomas family in this book???

Good Morning Everyone, I have posted this to several lists so I apologize if you get this posting more than once. Turning to the list members for their assistance in locating a copy or a photo copy of the family genealogy book with pertinent information listed below. I appreciate any assistance . Title : Genealogy of Thomas Family Author: George Leicester Thomas Publication: Adamstown, MD, ca 1954 472 Pages. Thanks and have a great day. Pat Sutton

Hi Tom No no-one has done a DNA test and the only THOMAS that I know of (descendant still baring the name) was a fe-male who died recently. She had no descendants. I can see if I can find out if there are any left if you like, as I am still in contact with members of the WATTERS clan (who had been still in touch with some of the THOMAS line) I am more than willing to share info with you - though I am not certain that my line goes back far enough. My WATTERS family goes back to about 1720 and THOMAS line to 1765 (where I have hit a brick wall) Emma Monmouth

Emma, I would like to see if you could find a living male from the Thomas or Watters line for me to contact. I am thinking that DNA matching may be the only way to break through the brick wall I seem to have hit. As far as sharing notes, my information says that Rees Thomas had three children born in Pembroke with his wife Catherine. These were Mary Thomas, b. 1719; James Thomas, b. 1720 and Margaret Thomas, b. 1723. Rees' next child with Catherine, named John, b. 1725 was reputedly born in Virginia. (This seems odd to me.) Also I have seen a family tree online claiming that Mary Thomas was wed to an Evan Jenkins in Pembroke. James Thomas is shown in land and other records later in Virginia. Hopefully something here strikes a chord. Please let me know what you hear from others in the Watters or Thomas clan.

I'm just trying to find out if I have any present-day "cousins" out there who are related or descend, rather, from any of the following Thomases: Stephen A. Thomas and wife Jane H. Thomas (don't know the maiden name) born in NC in 1798 and Jane in about 1800. They had the following children: Carney C. Thomas - b. 1819, m. Elizabeth F. Ammons Cader G. Thomas - b. 1822 , m. Mary A. Barnes Sarah Emeline Thomas - b. about 1823, m. 1)Jeremiah Williams 2) Charles McManus Albert James Thomas - b. about 1824, m. ? Ann Elizabeth Thomas - b. about 1830, m. Austin P. Webb Stephen Calvin Thomas - b. about 1832, m. Martha Ann Lee John Q. Thomas (my great grandfather, born in about 1833 in Georgia), m. Amanda M. Brown, my great grandmother Emily Catherine Thomas - b. 1836, m. 1) William Henry Gillespie, 2) David Anderson Gillespie Mary Russell Thomas - b. about 1837, m. Robert J. Evans, 2) Archibald M. Payton (Archie) James F. Thomas - b. about 1841, m. Eliza Jane Gillespie Francis M. Thomas - b. 1843, m. Zachariah Taylor Coker Amanda M. Thomas - b. about 1845, m. John G. Payton Madison Monroe Thomas - b. about 1847, m. Mary Elizabeth Gillespie I think most of the marriages took place in Coosa Co., Alabama, however, the earlier ones could have taken place in Harris Co., Georgia, as that's where moved from. Do I have any cousins out there, anywhere? Sue Howard

You can go to the Thomas Surname DNA Site and click on "Results" . There is no charge to go to this page. On the results you will see the persons who have signed up for tests, and the results of the tests. On the "Patriarchs" page you can see some pedigrees. good luck Donna Bray Braydon29@kc.rr.com ----- Original Message ----- From: <SewzArt@aol.com> To: <thomas@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2007 8:35 PM Subject: Re: [THOMAS] Thomas DNA > Just wondered if anyone has submitted a DNA sample for the Thomas families > desc from Aaron :Red" Waters Thomas born about 1776 and of Yancey NC and > No Ga. > I am of his son, Jobe thomas who went into Knox Co.

Emma, Has anyone in your family done the DNA thing? How far back can you trace these family lines? Maybe we can share notes to see if there is a connection.

Sue, The last time that I checked. I saw 3 samples in the project. I would love to learn more about your line. I am connect to many of the Thomas line that stayed behind in North Carolina. More recent would be Aaron (Water Aaron or Little Aaron) Thomas that married Martha Jane Ollis.

Just wondered if anyone has submitted a DNA sample for the Thomas families desc from Aaron :Red" Waters Thomas born about 1776 and of Yancey NC and No Ga. I am of his son, Jobe thomas who went into Knox Co. Ky. Thanks for a great list. Sue in Al. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

I know this is probably just a coincidence but my ancestors are the THOMAS and WATTERS family from Gower. They were from Cheriton/Llanmadoc. There was also a WATTERS family from Pembrokeshire that I am aware of though I don't believe we are related to them. The family believed that the WATTERS name originated in Scotland (Caspbell Watters) though I have yet to find evidence of this. Emma Monmouth

Daisy and Mandy, If you have not been to this site you should take a look. It is the National Geographic's Genographic Project site - https://www3.nationalgeographic.com/genographic This is how I first became exposed to the DNA for genealogy idea. When I bought my kit from them I received the DVD for the Journey of Man. It is very interesting and basically says we are all descended from the same small group of people that existed 50,000 to 60,000 years ago in Africa. One of the things we get when a match shows up through Family Tree DNA (www.ftdna.com) or Ysearch.org is the genetic distance of the match and a calculation based on probabilities of the Time to Most Recent Common Ancestor (TMRCA) between you and your match. One really needs to do at least a 25 marker test and preferably a 37 marker test as a follow on with any likely matches from the standard 12 marker test to really know much. In my case I am a 24 of 25 marker match with an Earl Ray Thomas who shows he descends from an Elisha Thomas born 1760 in Virginia. Meanwhile, I turned up with as good or better matches with some folks with the surnames Walters and Waters. According to the math, I have a 96.5% to 99.75% probabillity of a common ancestor with the Walters person between 16 and 24 generations back (that is 300 to 500 years back). That time frame is obviously beyond the reach of most genealogical information, so we may never know the connection. It is possible to have a test run for the deep haplogroup markers to discern the migration pattern of one's ancestors going back thousands of years. I have not felt the urge for that yet. Lastly, the Thomas DNA project page can be found at http://thomasdna.home.comcast.net.
