Hello all!

Marc Thomson:
Hello fellow Thom(p)sons!

My name is Marc Thomson. I'm a descendant of John Thomson b. ~1685 in West Lothian, Scotland. I was researching the Thomson name and its origins in an effort to aid my genealogical research and I ended up here. Actually, I found a debate on the existence of a Thomson clan, and that let me here.

I'm very pleased to see so many people who are as excited about the Thomson name and clan status as I am. My 3rd great grandfather, William Thomson and wife Amelia Ann Despain, immigrated to the USA in the late 1800's. The information we have from them regarding our family history is sparse at best.

Anyway, nice to meet you all. I've been lurking in the forums and now have the opportunity to contribute.

Welcome Indeed!

Marc, it is good to hear from you. Although my firdt name is George, I maionly go by Steve Thompson.

I am retired and now live in the SC Area. (Wonderful Beaches)
I am from WV (Wood CO) and the family (in the states) is from the Wythe Co Area of Virginia.
We originated in Scotland and I can trace all the way back to James Thom(p)son (abt 1350)
Dunbartonshire, Scotland.

Feel free to ask any questions you may have about the Thom(p)son line.

My files show that Ann Despain was married to George (son of William) about 1852.
As files can be wrong, please advise if mine are correct ?

The list for George goes back top John abt 1717. West Lothian Scotland,
