Thomas was the husband of my great grandmother Ellen Thorpe Smith and from what I can recall my aunt’s (all long gone now) a ner do well who finally abandoned Ellen. Growing up, never heard a good word about him. Now as I approach my 80’s myself I have learned to take some of this with the proverbial grain of salt. Do you know anything about about Thomas other than his Father’s name, etc? I’m so happy to have discovered this wiki tree website. Thank you so much for helping me along. I’ve got info dating way, way back on both sides of my family and look forward to working with kind folks like you to keep me on target.
With kind regards
Nelson Kilmer
