The earliest information that I have is of my G.G. Grandfather Samuel Proctor THOMAS b) Oct 1830 d) Apr 1916 -- married Rebecca Daniel HAYS in 1858. Rebecca was b) 1843 d) 1866 -- both are buried in Warren Co. KY. I am not sure if they were born in KY or not. They had 5 children: Charles Allen THOMAS b) 1859 d) 1916; John William Hardy THOMAS b) 1861; James Riley THOMAS b) 1863; and twins Sam Porter THOMAS & Jesse Ewing THOMAS b) 4 Dec 1865. Jesse Ewing THOMAS left KY with his family sometime after 1901 possibly & relocated in either West Quincy MO or in IL. My G.Grandfather Hubert THOMAS b) 11 Jan 1892 in Bowling Green KY, married Goldie May SIEGFRIED b) 17 Aug 1899, on 8 Jan 1920 in Hancock Co., IL, where they spent the rest of their lives. I am interested in any connections. Jodi Morrison ---------- Hello -- I have Thomas in Illinois 1818-??. I have a Sarah Thomas that married Henry Hatfield ca 1801. Believe that my Thomas' came from PA, migrated south to KY/TN then back up to IL. However, they corresponded with their cousins in PA while in IL. I'm interested in any Thomas that were in IL during this period and were in TN/KY around 1800... particularly White Co, TN and Warren Co. KY.

There are a number of Thomas's who came to Brown County, Illinois from Fayette County, Ohio, and I'm on a rabbit chase, but something has to come together. They all settled in the Cooperstown area and were connected with the Barkers. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Gladys
