[Tommies] Welcome Sharon Thompson from Alberta

[gcfraser at peoplepc.com]

Betty Lou,
I don't have the facts at my fingertips, but John of Mendon was the same age as John, David's son.  There are other reasons too including a late 18th century/early 19th century handwritten book in the RI historical society from Mendon that lists David as the father of John.

      Let me add my greetings of welcome to you, Sharon.  We Tommies are a pretty scattered and diverse group, but we all claim David Thompson  as an ancestor.  My particular hang up is the question of proof that John Thompson of Mendon, MA, from whom we all descend, is the same man as John Thompson, son of David.  If you have any information to help with this, please let us know.

      Hi Sharon, thanks for joining us.  I believe I know your Uncle Frank, if it's the same Frank Thompson -- met him on this list.  You and I (and others on the list including Frank) share an ancestor: C. B. Thompson, my great grandfather.  I'm eleventh generation wrt David Thomson, see my line here:

      Do we have the same line in common?  At least up to Charles?  Welcome to the Tommies list and I look forward to seeing further posts from you.

        Tommies,

        On Monday, 11/17/08,I received the Fall 2008 newsletter from Thompson Island Outward Bound.  On the back page (attached to this message), I found that Sharon Thompson of Alberta, Canada had visited Thompson Island and wanted to reach out to other descendants of David Thompson.  I contacted her by email, gave her a synopsis of our 2001 (Re)union, and pointed her to the Tommies website.  She has joined our email list.  

        Please join me in welcoming Sharon to our group.
