Andrew is not the son of Elswick Thompson. He is the son of the Archibald Thompson who married Nancy Langdon. This Archibald is the son of George Thompson. George is the brother of Archibald Thompson who left a diary. No one seems to believe me on this. Would someone please check out Montgomery Co. VA Deed Book K, page 565 for the deed between Andrew Thompson and Harriet, his wife and William Akers. This deed clearly states that Andrew is a rightful legatee in lands belonging to the estate of his father, Archibald Thompson, decd.
