Marshall married Sarah E. Thompson 184? Is there anyone one the list able to look up marriages in Lee and/or Scott counties around 1847-1849? I need the date and any other information about William N. Marshall that married Sarah E. Thompson. I am also looking for clues as to the families of origin of the above couple. I have reason to believe that Sarah is part of the Thompson clan from Lee & Scott counties that are descendants of William Thompson & Elizabeth Starr Thorpe. Naming patterns of William, Elizabeth, Sylvanus, Alfred, Mary, Sarah, Benjamin Franklin, & Jackson etc run through most of these families for several generations :) - makes sorting them out challenging, to say the least! If anyone has any information, I would love to hear from you.

Is there any connection between this Thompson family and The Thompson Settlement Church? Mary Gallano

Hi Mary,           You know that ia a good question and one I have tried to work on, but as yet I can't find much! My Lewis/Louis Thompson was in Lee Co, Va in 1835, but by 1837 he was in a part Claiborne Co. TN that later became Hancock Co. TN, also the Rev James Gilbert and Sarah Marshall also relocated to the same palce as my Lewis, he was married to their daughter Sarah Gilbert! Rev. James was the son of Joseph Hiram Gilbert and Nancy Cheek who are both buried a few miles from the Thompson Settlement Church. Lewis Thompson was born in 1813 in VA but that creates a problem as the census had not as yet started adding the names of family, but there are quite a few Thompson's that had a son in the right age groups in the 1820 and 1830 census. It has become quite frustrating as I know he has to belong to one of them!!! Take Care...                                                                                                   Evie                  --- On Thu, 8/28/08, Mary Bittick Gallano <Mary_Bittick_Gallano@earthlink.net> wrote: From: Mary Bittick Gallano <Mary_Bittick_Gallano@earthlink.net> Subject: Re: [VALEE] William N.
