My great grandfather was Albert James Thomas, b. 1866, Cheddar England. On his tombstone in Owasco Rural Cemetery, town of Skaneateles, Onondaga County, NY, his name is, "A. James Thoma." His parents were James Thomas and Elizabeth Thomas, both born ca. 1837. Elizabeth's parents were Anne Evans and Amariah Thomas, both of Cheddar, Somerset, England. For her 2nd husband, Elizabeth Thomas married George Evans, b. ca. 1848. With Elizabeth's first husband, James Thomas, children besides Albert James Thomas, were Thomas Thomas, b. 1870, and Arthur Thomas, b. 1863. With her 2nd husband, Elizabeth Thomas had Elizabeth Jane Evans, b. ca. 1873, Sarah Ann Evans, b. 1872, and William C. Evans, b. 1871. Surnames these Thomas family members married into included Cooke, Fear, Coombe, and King. Reply if any names are familiar. Thank you. Barbara Spain
