Thompson - Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts
I have just stumbled upon information that indicated that my Thompson couple ELIJAH THOMPSON and SALLEY SMITH had at least some of their children in Maine - and then at some point they landed in Gilmanton then Wolfeboro NH where they had a farm in the 1850's Now he may have been born in Maine - as I have run into records for the same people in different areas, i.e. the town they were married in, the town they were born in the town their spouse was born in... I have an Elijah (also been noted as Elisha) Thompson born August 06, 1793 who married a Salley Smith said to be born February 16, 1791 in Canaan, New Hampshire.
My first Winfield Scott Thompson went to Darmascotta Maine after retirement to live with his sisters and cousins from his father's side - my great aunt was told that they have lots of family in Maine as well as the Wolfeboro NH area - so we have connection and ties in New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts
