Thompson, son of Hiram & Polly, married Elizabeth Sullivan on July 25th, 1870. The couple lived initially in Worth County, MO. then in the Cherokee-Strip and in Linn County, KS. Together they had four children: Nathaniel, Rosemond, Ivie and Fred. Thompson is at left in the adjacent photo.
Thompson and his brother John were married to sisters. John named his son after his brother.
In the early 1900's he joined his son Nathaniel in his blacksmith shop at Minburn, Iowa where he did the woodwork on wagons. In 1918 he and his wife left Iowa for Vancouver, WA. where his son Fred was living.
THE WEDDLE BOOK by Elizabeth Mueting lists Thompson's burial location as Manor Wilson Bridge Cemetery. A search of the overgrown cemetery grounds, by an F-A-G volunteer, did not locate a grave. However, a record search reveals plots purchased by Fred Weddle. The Layne Funeral Home of Battle Ground, WA. [360-687-3143] manages the cemetery.
