My g gf was Wm E Thompson born 1846-4/30/1897 in West Brandywine in Chester County, PA. The Wm Thompson is fact the connection beck to John R is circumstantial. The info I have on John was that he was born in PA, married a Mary (1810-5/1/1869) and had eight children. Ring any bells? Any time there are Thompson's in PA, and especially when they are married to a Mary, I have to jump in. Here is my Thompson line, see if any of these fit in.
