General Notes: Husband - James Thompson

He was born in Ireland and immigrated to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and thence to Butler County, early in the 1800s. He purchased a farm in what is now Franklin township, subsequently removed to Beaver County, and then returned to Butler County, and bought a tract of 600 acres of land in Cherry township. Here he cleared a farm, made substantial improvements, and resided upon it down to his death. He was a member of the Protestant Episcopal church.
