Ark. from 1860 until the 1900's. Before they came to Arkansas they lived in Marion CO. Tn. in 1850. Living next to Elsick Thompson in 1860 in Franklin CO. ARk. is a William Thompson and a Permelia Maxfield Thompson with children Sarah E. , D. Frank, I believe this William is a brother to Elsick they list there birth places as Tennessee on some censuses and Georgia on others. Then in 1880 in Franklin Co. Ark. I find a Isaac Thompson and Nancy ( ? Burns) had children named Lydia, Mary, George, William, Green, Sarah, Martha, Osborn and Dawson. this family has birth places of Tn. Nc, and Ga. I went to the 1840 Marion Co. Tennesse census I traced all Thompsons the names as heads of household appear to be Ausburn, Moses, Charlotte, Hampton, William, and Ann. The only two that have a son born in 1826 would be either Moses or Ausbern. Now looking in the Ancestry and Rootsweb databases I find that Ausbern married a Abigail Wilson and had children Ausburn, William, Alexander, Mire, Nancy, Sarah and tennesse ( tempie). Three of these sons died in Ark. no further info. Now since our Elsick had children named Tennessee, Abigail and a son William this appears to be on the right track. Can anyone help figure this mess out.
