Hey Ariel, Thanks for posting that info, even if there is some mistakes it can help in moving in the right direction and with that in mind, I have some quetions? Do we know how the info for the children was obtained? I would like to know so I can look to this source of info in finding where my Thompson's did and did not belong! I would like to know where Wills and other sources can be obtained in Lee Co and how it can be obtained living in another state with no chance of visiting in the near future? I haven't been able to find a death record for Lewis/ Louis Thompson or Sarah Gilbert? Also the census records alot of times just leads to more questions! So I am starting to look at maps as it seems that maybe border changes involving Counties and States was a big factor in the area of our shared Ancestors!!! I just feel at such a stand still with my Thompson's. I am still trying to find descentants of Lewis and Sarah by researching all their children! You have a Good Labor Day as well and also hope that all is well for any on this list affect by the hurricaine!!! Take Care...

I may be able to tie it in somewhere, but the Sarah E. Thompson I need to place definitely married William N. Marshall around 1848 or so. She would have been born around 1828.
