Charles: I'm looking for information on a Dorchester County family....
John Thompson and his two sons Alexander & Thomas who moved from Dorchester
County to Kent Island in Queen Anne County in 1850. Any connection to your
research???????

Also interested in the Richard Thompson line.

Thanks Mike Thompson
