FAMILY CONNECTION: Family tradition has long maintained that James F.
Thompson, father of David Fleming Thompson, and James Thompson, son of Amos and
Mary Thompson are the same. Doris Thompson Harris was told (or concluded) they
were the same after discussion she had with a Bruce in 1976. After extensive
study of the Thompsons in the Bland County area, I am also convinced it is so.
The number of James in the area are few, James F. is the best fit.The best supportive record found to date is Netti Schreiner-Yantis, "Archives
of the Pioneers of Tazewell County, Virginia", the abtracted will of George
Wagonner, (page 165), 25 April 1822. George's son, Adam is listed as getting
land on Kimberling Fork. Adam was father of Franklin Waggonner, who was first
husband of Catherine Y. Munsey. Executor was William Bruce, who was a brother
of Mary Bruce, wife of Amos Thompson. Amos is listed as a witness, he was the
father of a James Thompson. William Hearne is a witness; our James F. Thompson
married Sarah (Sallie) Hearne whose father was William Hearne. Catherine Y.
Munsey's second husband was D. F. Thompson, whose father was our James.BIRTH-DEATH-SPOUSE: Letter from Mary-Margaret Beach, Warrenton MO, to Brian

Joshua B. Thompson, who married Allen T. Muncy, age 20, son of James & Jemima
Muncy, on August 21, 1856. The age matches exactly the calculated birth year of
1839. The wedding was performed by Joshua Bruce, a family friend and minister.
In contrast to other parents, no wife is listed for Joshua B. as father,
implying she is deceased, which matches Joshua Bruce's situation at that time.
More proof needed to show these are the same.Less likely, Sarah may have married her cousin, Robert Thompson, son of Josiah
M & Anna Thompson. See marriage record of Robert Thompson and S.E.Thompson,
daughter of of "Jos B & Emeter" of page 4 of Bland County Vital Records (film #
030630). The parents names are not an exact match for Sarah, and the calculated
birth year is 1842 compared to 1839 in the census. More proof needed. As more
circumstantial evidence, Esther married James, a cousin from the same family.

PARENTS-RELATIONSHIP: There is currently no hard proof that David R. Thompson, the son of Amos, is the same David Thompson found in the 1850 Tazewell and 1860 Mercer county census, whose wife was Angeline. However, I believe they are the same. Amos had a son, David, who was alive for his will in 1870. There are no David Thompsons found in Wythe county during there years. There are several David's in Virginia, but none in neighboring counties of Wythe, except this David. The census David is the correct age to fit in the birth order indicated by Amos's will and known dates of siblings. Amos's son should be born about 1814. The census David is 36 in 1850 and 45 in 1860. The census David has a son named Amos, which seems to be a family name, at least, it is not common in other Thompson families I've researched. I conclude they are the same.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Williams's age is listed as 3 in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 10 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH: Angeline's age is listed as 30 in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 38 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Henry's age is listed as 10 in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 20 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Listed as Ana M., age 8, in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and Ann M., age 18, in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Margaret's age is listed as 6 in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 16 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Julia's age is listed as 5 in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 14 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Amos's age is listed as 4 in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 13 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources. My guess is the D. stands for David.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Williams's age is listed as 3 in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 10 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources. My guess is the 1850 census age is a little more accurate since there is an infant in the home in 1850.
BIRTH-CENSUS: George's age is listed as 7 months in the 1850 census (Tazewell) and 9 in the 1860 census (Mercer). See sources. Birthplace seems certain to be Tazewell, since he was 7 months in that census.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Age 6 in 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Age 5 in 1860 census (Mercer). See sources. Assumed to be male because of uncle Frances, Amos's brother.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Age 3 in 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
BIRTH-CENSUS: Age 6 months in 1860 census (Mercer). See sources.
