He was born there April 24, 1843, son of George THOMPSON, and is a great-grandson of John THOMPSON, the first of the family in Indiana county, known as "drover John." He married Mary CAIN, and to their union were born the following children: John; Rosanna, who married William Hanna; Sarah, who married William HOPKINS; Margaret, who married John CRUSAN; William, who married Mary BRADY; George C., who married Elizabeth DAVIS; and Robert. John THOMPSON, son of John and Mary (CAIN) THOMPSON, was a farmer of Blacklick township, where his life was spent. He married Eleanor DAVIS, and had children: John; William; George; James; David; Samuel, who married Sarah CLAWSON; Christopher, who settled in Clarion County, Pa.; Jane, wife of Adam CREAMER; and Margaret, wife of Dr. John BENNETT, a prominent physician of Erie, Pennsylvania. George THOMPSON, son of John and Eleanor (DAVIS) THOMPSON, was born in Blacklick township about 1812. What education he acquired was obtained in the subscription schools at that time. He began to help at home in early boyhood, and was thus engaged until he reached manhood, when he went to work in Campbell's mills, on Blacklick creek, for some time. Then he started farming on the homestead on his own account, buying out the interest of the other members of the family, and here continued to live the rest of his life. His farm contained over one hundred acres. He was a stanch Democrat, and took a live interest in his township and is public affairs, serving as supervisor for many years, school director, and tax collector for many years. His religious connection was with the M. E. Church. He died on the homestead in 1873, and was buried in Hopewell cemetery. Mr. THOMPSON was twice married, his first wife, Eliza (CLAWSON), daughter of Jonathan and Sarah (MOORHEAD) CLAWSON, dying when about twenty-five years of age. For his second wife he married Ruth CLAWSON, daughter of Samuel and Ann (DONAHUE) CLAWSON. There were four children by the first marriage and twelve by the second, namely: Sarah died when sixteen years old; John George is mentioned below; James married Hannah HOUSTON, of Blacklick, Burrell township; Eliza married Josiah C. HOUSTON, and lived in Johnstown; (and by the second marriage) Eleanor married John McINTYRE and resides in Blairsville; Richard C. was next in the family; Margaret Ann married Milton STUMP; Elizabeth died young; Mary married Ollie FRIZZLE, and lived in Wentworth, S. Dak.; Nancy Emma died when seventeen years old; Charles B. married Nettie SPIRES and lives in Blairsville; William married Agnes HOAG, and lives in Josephine, Pa.; Maria married Harry BOYLE and lives in Allegheny City, Pa.; Malinda married James STARRIE and resides at Blarisville, Pa.; Tillie died young; David married Catherine GASEILL, and lives in Blairsville. John George THOMPSON, son of George and Eliza (CLAWSON) THOMPSON, was born in Blacklick township and attended the Yankee Hill school there. He remained on the farm with his father until 1864, when he enlisted, in September, in Company D 206th Pennsylvania Volunteers, under Col. Hugh J. BRADY, of Indiana county, and Capt. W. C. GORDON. Proceeding to the front he was attached to the 18th Corps, then near Bermuda Hundred, soon after moving to the north side of the James river and being assigned to duty with the engineer corps that built Fort Brady, north of Dutch Gap. In the latter part of October the command was assigned to the 3d Brigade, 1st Division, 10th Corps, and went into winter quarters, being engaged principally in drill and routine camp duty. Upon the reorganization of the army corps the 206th was assigned to the 24th Corps and continued on duty with the Army of the James, under General ORD. During the spring campaign the regiment was ordered to remain in camp, doing provost duty, and upon the evacuation of Richmond was the first to enter the Southern capital, where it did provost duty. Later it was on similar duty at Lynchburg. Mr. THOMPSON continued in the army until the close of the war, the period of his service being ten months, four days. He was discharged in June, 1865, in Richmond, and returning home again took up farming. The two years following he spent on the George COMPTON farm; then for four years was on the TURNER farm, which he rented, and at the end of that period returned to the homestead, on the hill near Muddy run. From the time his father died he farmed there for himself, having a tract of ninety-six acres where he carried on general farming and stock raising. He erected a frame house and barn, and in other respects also made extensive improvements on the place, which bears many evidences of his excellent management. Mr. THOMPSON has now retired from active work, living in Grafton, on Blacklick creek, and the farm is conducted by his son Harry W. THOMPSON. In his early life Mr. THOMPSON supported the principles of the Democratic party, later became associated with the Greenback party, and of late years has allied himself with the Socialist party, of which he is a strong supporter. He and his wife are members of Hopewell M. E. church, but now attend the M. E. Church at Black Lick. On Oct.. 6, 1866, Mr. THOMPSON married Emeline McCOY, of Indiana, Ill., daughter of Church and Mary Jane (McCARDELL) McCOY. They have had two children, Harry Willett and Iola, the daughter residing with her parents. Harry Willett THOMPSON now farms the homestead. He married Elizabeth JONES, and they had three children, John G., Carson Wendel and Edna May. --------------------------------- HISTORY OF INDIANA COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, by Prof. J. T.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: jdbaker Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.thompson/17154/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Book preserves heritage of East Texas forestry; "The House of Thompson" reprinted The Kilgore Presbyterian Church building was supported by the Thompson family. "The House of Thompson" was first printed in 1908 by "The American Lumberman" and a reprint has just been published from a scan of the original volume. This historical book contains over 90 pages of rare photos that show the woods as they looked when the early settlers arrived in East Texas. Anyone associated with the timber industry, the history of East Texas, and family histories will find this book a treasure. It belongs in community libraries, schools, industries and individual homes and offices. This historical document recounts the story of the Thompson brothers, John Martin Thompson and William Wirt Thompson, and the series of sawmills they built in East Texas towns including New and Old Willard, Doucette, Grayburg, and Trinity. They and their mills played a major role in the development of East Texas lumbering. Great-great grandchildren of John Martin Thompson, Lucile Slocomb Thompson and John Guy Slocumb, gave the Texas Forestry Museum a copy of "The American Lumberman" along with the original photographs taken for the publication. The book features pictures of virgin pine forests taken by the photographer from "The American Lumberman" in 1907 while traveling in East Texas. Here the crew is loading the logs on a tram line. In 1881, the Thompson Brothers moved their company office to Willard and built a mill. When they surveyed the available forests along with proposed railroad course, they thought there was timber standing to supply the mill for its lifetime. In 1887, the railroad reached the area, so Thompson and partner Henry Tucker bought a tram steam locomotive and crews built tramways into the areas that were to be cut. Loggers cut the huge trees with crosscut saws. Trees less than 12 inches in diameter were left standing. The scaler determined the most efficient lengths to cut the logs. The buckers and shoppers trimmed the limbs and cut the timber into correct lengths. As much of the log as possible was used. Logs were skidded to the tramway with the help of horses, mules, or oxen. Larger logs wee skidded with a high-wheeled slip tongue cart pulled by mules or oxen. Loading the logs on the wagon or rail car was done as a "cross-haul" with a cable attached to the wagon, passed over the log and then back over the wagon to a horse or mule team on the other side, then the log was eased up a pair of poles to the wagon while two men steadied the log. This shows how large logs were moved to a collection point. Steam equipment was available in the woods just before 1900. The steam loader and steam skidder increased the amount of logs that could be loaded by a woods crew. When working in areas too distant to return to the sawmill at night, a "front camp" was set up, often including families. Loads of logs was moved back to the mill, and unloaded, usually into a millpond to wash the dirt off from skidding and protect against insect. By 1908 special equipment for log handling had been developed making work safer. Inside the mill, the logs were set on the steam powered log carrier and cut into lengths to make the best use of the wood. The boards then were trimmed with circular blades. The person who kept the saws operating was the saw filer who was the highest paid laborer at the mill. The rough-cut lumber was sorted by size and stacked to air dray for 30 days. Later the lumber was stored in rough sheds. Lumber selected to be dressed was placed in a brick kiln where steam heat and blowers lowered the moisture content of the lumber in 4 to 6 days, then cooled before dressing in the planning mills. Logs at the tram siding. Steam engines, or a dynamo, provided power for the equipment in the sawmill and planer mill. Separate engines in each mill allowed the operation to continue if there was a fire in one section which was fairly common. Lumber was shipped from a shipping platform and placed on railroads that expanded the market for East Texas lumber. More and more railroads criss-crossed East Texas with increasing demand for Thompson Brothers southern yellow "Lone Star Pine." Reprint of the book was triggered by two coinciding events: the 25th anniversary of the Trinity County Forest Landowners Association (TCFLA) in 2007, and the 100th anniversary of the creation of the original Thompson photos in 1907 and the subsequent printing in book form the following year. To make this project possible, an original print copy of "The house of Thompson" from the Texas Forestry Museum was scanned at the East Texas Research Center Stephen F. Austin University in Nacogdoches. Hardback, 90-plus pages of photographs and stories of the Thompson Brothers' sawmills, $30 plus $7 shipping . This facsimile copy is sponsored by the Sam R. and Malcom Monroe Barnes Foundation to preserve our history and to document the story of living and logging in the East Texas forests of the past. For each book, send a check for $30 plus $7 shipping and handling made out to "House of Thompson" to: Jane Baxter, 4641 Chalmers Drive, Nashville, TN 37215. For more information, call 615-594-4642.
