See this: http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=danielsg&id=I2510 There was another (unrelated) Hazard Thompson (born 1814; lived in Maury Co., TN around the 1830s or so and then moved to MO, where he died in 1883) who was a son and a grandson of men named Robert Thompson. See this: http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:3044190&id=I1543 Men from both of the above Thompson families have taken the Y chromosome DNA test, and those men were not a match to one another (hence the reason that I know that the above two Thompson families were not related). Do you know of a living male Thompson who is a descendant of "your" later Jason Hazard Thompson who could take the DNA test? By the way the above Robert and Hazard Thompson family is a DNA match to the family of an Abraham Thompson who was born in VA around 1776 and who married an Elizabeth Brown in KY in the 1790s. At this point, no one has determined how those two "branches" of that Thompson family "connect"....but DNA shows that they were very closely related. Comments/questions?
