Hi Connie. I’m new here, just joined because I was messing around on my browser, I stuck my Great Grandfather’s name into the browser and your comment, from 2010, came up:
You wrote, “Names of my Grandfathers are: Joel B Thompson Jr. born 1840 in Madison County GA Married to Amanda Roberts. Joel Thompson Sr Born 1793 in Madison GA but was in one of three counties that later became Madison. His wife was Elizabeth Smith.
I hope to be able to trace the family further back to see how they came to be in GA. So far I have been unable to locate them in the land lottery but am sure they will pop up somewhere.” ~
They are my Great and Great Great Grandfathers. Joel B. (the younger) was my Great-Grandfather. My Grandfather was Lafayette Jackson Thompson. He and his wife Minnie had about 14 kids. My Dad was the youngest boy, his name at birth was Jack Leonidas. He changed it to Jack Leon Thompson. I probably can’t remember all his siblings names, but I can try. There was Dillard, Tom, James, Harold, Lonnie (pronounced Loney), Eileen, Alberta, Inez, Alma, Judy and my Dad, Jack. My older sister has an album with a lot of genealogy on our family, going back to Ireland and Scotland. I’ll try to get some information from her and share it with you, privately. Our cousin, James, had done some research, too. He died, but he posted a good bit on Ancestry.com. My Dad told me his great something grandfather and brothers immigrated here from Ireland. The name Thompson was anglicized from MacTavish. It originated in Scotland. So, we are Scots-Irish.
I’ll be glad to forward info from my sister when I get it. I’m on Facebook, too. We’re cousins once removed or something like that. Lol
Hi Connie - No was not me who posted on the Bloodgood name or on Rootsweb about them. I usually post about Avery on those sites. Sorry I can't help. But it is good to hear from you.
