General Notes: Husband - James Thompson


He and his wife emigrated to America, first settled in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, then removed to Butler County, where they purchased six hundred acres of timber land. A part of this he cleared, erecting a log cabin on it, and there spent the remainder of their days, the property at their death being divided among their children.
