Author: ShawnCrockett48162 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.thompson/19692.2.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Michael, I have in my hand my grandmothers birth and death certificate. Here is the info on the birth cert. Her name on cert is Donna Fern Thompson and there is at the time of her birth the number of children born to this mother listed as 1. Father: D.L. Thompson, born in Canton OH aged 24 (on Apr 14, 1930). One place we found he was Donald. Monther: Janet Johnson, born in Canton, Ohio, aged 18 (on Apr 14, 1930) At the time of birth, on the cert, says dad lived at 616 - 4th Street N,W. in Canton, but the mother was living in Charleston, W.V. The birth cert was issued in Charelston, W.V. I am hoping that this helps with trying to trace this line back. Another piece of interesting info was that there was a promenet Baptist minister in the early 1700's named Rev Thompson that came over from Ireland with the Crockett's. Two got married, a Samuel Crockett and an Esther Thompson. I am trying to see if I can gap the connection possibly between my two grandmothers. Let me know if this helps out at all or if you can point me in the direction. Thanks, Shawn Crockett Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

When I do get my hands on the genealogy info, which I will since I am the only one doing this in the family, I will drop a line and let you know, good sir. Just from memory, I am thinking that she was born in like 22 or somewhere in that area and in WV. This is according to what I was told about her birth cert.
