Individual Details

The family Bible states that Amos Thompson (my father) was born in North Carolina, 16 May 1799. He died in Panola County, TX 21 Aug 1854. Susan (my mother) died in Humphreys County, Tennessee.

Apparently Dickson's mother-in-law, had followed them to Texas and he was the administrator of her estate.
