    3. Hi Laura and List members, I have a Bible record of 12 children of Thomas THOMAS who was born in Wellinborough, Burlington Co.,NJ in 1761. His father was David THOMAS from Wales and his mother was Margaret Lucas. Thomas moved to Rostraver Twp.,Westmoreland Co.,PA around 1786 after serving in the Rev. War. I believe he was given this property as reward for his military services. Thomas married Mary GRIMES 20 Feb 1783. First child,that was listed in the Family Bible was Samuel born 2 Dec 1785. David THOMAS had two brothers who came with him from Wales around 1740. One stayed in the area for a bit then moved to VA. and the other moved to NC. at least that is what was reported by descendents. I only have record of Thomas THOMAS, but have often wondered if he had brothers and sisters.If so, maybe they came with him and settled in Washington Co.? Rostraver Twp., is across the river from Washington Co. and there was ferry service. Jan
