Looking over my response, it does read a bit "short." Sorry about that--I didn't mean it to be. I've always been both puzzled and fascinated by the concept of the "Jewish name." I have Jewish friends with good "English" last names like Baker and Turner; I have non-Jewish friends with German last names who are sometimes taken to be Jewish. But back to the Thomasons: I don't have any info directly related to the one you're looking for, but having recently been in touch with a Thomasson cousin whose Thomasson grandfather was "lost" to his family thru divorce back in the 20's, and who did succeed in finally tracking him down, I think I can understand the importance of your search. If I come across anything that might help, I'll certainly pass it along. Good luck!
