I will go on FamilyTreeDNA to see if we are matched some how. Since this was posted last year I'd have to get requited with the family tie. I've been researching my Italian side for a future trip to Italy in Sept. Most of my efforts are there for the time being, however, I love family research so I'd love to work with you on the Thomson research. P.S. I do most of my work on Ancestry.com. Do you have an account there?
Some of your dates and placenames for the Thomson generations look like they've got jumbled in with other non-family Thomsons? eg son James has same birthdate as father James and dies on the same date as father, but in USA?
Look forward to working with you on DNA or other Thomson family research if you're interested?
I've just received my mtDNA results from FamilyTree, so your timing couldn't have been better. The Thomson's are on my maternal side, so with all the name changes I don't personally know any Thomson's to ask about DNA.
My 4x Maternal Great Grandmother was a Thomson she married a Henderson. I've generated a report and it goes back to James Thomson my 10x Great Grandfather the famous one that died on June 1, 1679 in the battle of Drumclog and Bothwell Bridge, if you'd like to receive the report I'd have to send through email, so I'd need your email address. I also, took an Autosomal DNA test through Ancestry.com and transferred results to Family Finder.
I have an article called "The Covenanters the 50 years stuggle 1638-1688" I could send too.
