Hi tammiegirl,

Hello from Australia. I know this is very late but I also am a descendant of James THOMPSON and Elizabeth CRAWFORD from Portglenone. Their son William THOMPSON (b. ~1843) emigrated to Australia in 1864. William had a son David THOMPSON who was my maternal grandfather. Our family records here show that William's father was definitely JAMES and was born in 1809. I would be interested in any other info that you may have found in the years since your last post here in 2015.

Kind regards,
Brian Foster

Hi Sarah,

Thanks for your message.

Unfortunately, the "David THOMPSON" that you refer to in your message above is not the "David THOMPSON" that I mentioned in my original message. My "David THOMPSON" was my maternal grandfather and was born in Queensland, Australia in 1893.

Thanks for your research.

Have great 2020!
Cheers,
Brian

Hi Sarah,

That's great info.

Can you put any dates to the marriage of James THOMPSON and Agnes? Also do you have Agnes's maiden name?

Any other info would be wonderful.

Thanks again.
Cheers,
Brian
