Individual Details
William A. Thomas
(Abt 1818 - 1889)
Probably born between 1810-1820. Listed as male under 10 in 1820 Census. Pittsylvania 1830 census shows a male, age 20-29, in the household of Ichabod. It would seem if this was Ichabod's son William, he was born 1800-1810, but then Ichabod did not marry until 1817 so either the census is wrong or this is some other young man living with Ichabod.
Said to have never married.
