John H Thompson born May 1875 married to Alta Marietta Hoyt would be my husbands Grandparents. We believe his father was also John H. We have been told of ancestors living in the Warren, PA area & at one time owned some land on the Alleghany River. We have copies of sales of the land and they are signed by Charles & wife Margaret June 1857; William & wife Eliza Jane, Robert & wife Rachel in 1864. Could you or anyone help us. John's son (my father) left around 1948 and we never heard from him again there do not know of any family. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
