Looking for parents/siblings of William Holloway Thompson, born at Alpine, Talladega Co. AL in July 1840 -- died at Palestine, Anderson Co. TX in 1914. Married Nancy Jane Roberts (1841 SC - 1909 TX) in Talladega Co. in 1866. Children of this couple were: Jesse E. (called "Pink"), c. 1867 John W., c. 1870 James Monroe, c. 1872 Robert Lee, c. 1873 Emma Louisa, c. 1876 Elijah Washington, c. 1880 Mary Frances (called "Fannie"), 17 May 1883 - 18 December 1916 Descendants of several of the older children came to Texas for a family reunion in the mid-1980s, and I am hoping to locate them. William, Nancy Jane, and at least their two youngest children came to Texas between the 1900 census (at which time they were living in Fayette Co. AL) and 1902, Nancy died at Exray, Erath Co. TX in 1909 -- William married Arethusa (or Althusa) Courtney Forrester in Anderson Co. TX in 1912. . Census records show William's parents as having been born in South Carolina. In 1860 he was living with and working for a couple named Beckham or Beckman in Talladega Co. -- Mrs. Beckham/Beckman was Sarah Thompson, born SC -- I think she may have been William's older sister. I would appreciate any help on locating William's parents and siblings. Thank you, Nancy Harwood
