I don't know if you have a copy of the death certificate for Will Thomas who died in 1955. You can see a copy of the original certificate at -- http://search.labs.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html?..#w=;p=2;c=1320964;t=searchable
Type in Will Thomas died 1955, Lamar, Texas. It says he died in Paris, TX. Gives maiden name of his mother as Standifer. That is one of my lines so I took a look at Carol Yarbarough's great site for all spellings of Standefer (spelling for my line). Someone has done a lot of research on Theodosia, her parents and further back.
http://www.carolyar.com/ -- Click on Enter, Click on Search and enter Theodosia. One will be entries from family Bible, and the other one you want gives descendants of James Standifer. We are "cousins" on that line.
You show W.W. was born in Lamar Co, TX, so I assume you have a source for that location. Is this him with his family?
1880 census Larmar Co, TX:
Category: Name; Relationship to head of household; Marital Status; Gender; Race; Age; Birthplace; Occupation; Father's Birthplace; Mother's Birthplace.
John C. THOMAS Self M Male W 45 TN Farmer NC VA
Susan R. THOMAS Wife M Female W 45 VA Keeping House VA VA
John A. THOMAS Son S Male W 11 TX Keeping House TN VA
William W. THOMAS Son S Male W 9 TX Keeping House TN VA
Mary E. THOMAS Dau S Female W 7 TX Keeping House TN VA
Allen W. R. DERTING SDau S Female W 23 VA Keeping House VA VA
Susan DERTING SDau S Female W 21 TX VA VA
Stephen FLEMING SSon S Male W 19 TX Farmer TX VA
If so, it looks like his mother was married a couple of times before she married John C.
Happy Hunting (^_^)
