Research Notes

  • Elizabeth Thompson is recorded in the 1910 US census as having given birth to 19 children with 8 still living. There are 8 children recorded with her in the 1880 US census. Her son Littleton died before the 1910 census was taken because his wife Sarah Jane is recorded as widowed, so there is a child unaccounted for.
  • A grandson appears with her in the 1910 US Census, but his parents are unknown: Bishop Wadley (abt.1899-).
