| Notes |
Born about 1745 the year the Leyden Jar (earliest form of electric condenser) was invented. Thomas settled in Amwell Twp. three miles S.E. of the city of Washington, Pennsylvania about 1770. He named his farm "Campden". His cabin was a regular preaching point on the Redstone Riding Circuit. In 1784 he was a tax collector and in 1801 & 1812 he was a trustee for the First United Methodist Church of Washington, Pennsylvania. A plaque honoring him is said to be hanging in the church today. In 1823 Thomas is past his seventy-fifth birthday and in the decade following the Revolutionary War he watches as America attempts to develop its own nationality.
In 1823 he is a widower, Jane his wife has been gone nine years. He plans to follow his son John and John's wife Susannah (Caton) to Greencastle, Ohio to reside with them but died en route in Union Township, Ross County, Ohio. The same year President James Monroe presented the Monroe Doctrine to Congress which proclaims that the Americas are closed to colonization by European states.
