Author: redtonyt Surnames: Thompson Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.thompson/17221/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I am looking for anyone that might have any information on my GGGgrand-father Samuel Thompson who according to the 1851 census return was born in Tetbury, Glos in or about 1781. He died in the Poor House in Farnborough, Kent in 1852. How or why he moved from Gloucestershire, I have no idea, but on the way he acquired a wife Sarah born in Eynsford, Kent not too far from Farnborough. She also died in the Poor House about a year later. Any information or pointers on either would be greatly appreciated. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
