Graham Thompson:
I have no clue what im looking at. Theres a bunch of surnames but I dont no where to look. And from what my grandparents told me I dont have English blood at all. I read somewhere that the name Thompson spelt with a p come from part of england but they were never english just scottish people who moved there.
Booner:
ok Graham,
Lets walk through this...
4 or 5 posts above Cathy gave you you're 6th generation of Thompsons---is it correct that you are related to Joseph Oxley Thompson & his wife, Catherine Dixon? Since Cathy gaved that to you, I gotta beleive you are. The Celtic Warrior Princess would not make a mistake that that.
So assuming that info is correct, we can go about this one ot two ways-
the 1st way-click on this link and you'll go to Joseph's page---> http://www3.telus.net/chignecto/thompson/aqwg09.htm#31986
You'll notice the number "103" next to Joseph's name. All of the great grandchildren of John Thmpson & Mary Sunley will have a 3 didgit number. You'll notice that there are three names to the right of Joseph's, Raplh B, Richard, and John. Thes are joseph's father, grandfather & great grandfather. Click on Ralph B's name and you'll go to his Family (wife & children) Ralph's number is 18, all grandchildren of John will have a two didgit number. NExt to Ralph's name is Richard & John ( Ralph's father & grandfather) click on Richards name and you'll see his family. Richard's number is 5, all children of John's will be a single didgit number. Click on JOhn's name and you'll get to his family sheet.
The 2nd way--
click on this link again--->http://www3.telus.net/chignecto/thompson/index2.htm
You get a surname list of the decendants of John Thompson. close to the top of the page is an alphabet; click on "T." You'll get a list of all people with a surname begining with "T" who are related to John Thompson. Find Thompson and click on that. From the Thompson surnames, find " Joseph Oxley b.1806 and click on that. You'll go to Joseph's page. Again, you'll notice the number "103" next to his name. From this point, follow the instructions I gave you above (for the 1st way), and you should get back to John Thompson.
Regards,
Big T
