Samuel Thompson/only son Frank Thompson
Posted by: Linda Hutchens (ID *****2352) Date: July 24, 2008 at 11:02:21

Is anyone familiar with this family of Thompson's?

I am interested mostly in Samuel Thompson age 7 NEPHEW in the home of Barzilla J. Thompson in 1880 Cleburne Co. AL. and his wife Ada Parley/Paralee Pruitt. Ada Pruitt Thompson was the daughter of Levi Pruitt and Mary Moore.

1880 Cleburne Co. AL Courthouse-Edwardsville
Barzilla J. Thompson age 35 born AL parents: SC GA
Emma M. age 8 daughter AL parents: SC AL
SAMUEL age 7 NEPHEW born AL parents: AL AL
Lillie A. age 4 daughter born AL parents: SC AL
Tabitha age 63 Sister-in-law born GA parents: VA SC

ANSWERED A QUESTION THAT HAS BEEN A THORN FOR YEARS !!!! How did Sam T. Thompson relate to Catherine Pruitt as great grandmother in 1910 Blount County AL.

Apparently the person answering the census question's was not Samuel Thompson or his wife ADA. Catherine Pruitt, widow of Jonathon G. Pruitt CSA, was the grandmother of wife ADA Parley Pruitt Thompson, ADA was the daughter of Levi Pruitt and Mary Moore.
