Hiram THOMPSON & Ms. __?__ & Elizabeth DALE

Hiram THOMPSON
Ms. __?__
Elizabeth DALE

UPDATE: In looking at this page, now, some nine or ten years after I first created it, I find myself wondering on what basis I thought to connect either Peter or Cynthia to our subject, even tentatively. I must have had a reason, or I wouldn't have done it, but I failed to include the reason among the sources. Mea culpa — and caveat emptor!
Possible (minor) reasons I can see from the page: 1) Peter and Hiram both had sons named Thomas at a time and place when this name was rare among THOMPSONs. 2) Both Thomas, s/o Peter, and Hiram lived in Monroe Co., MO, in the 1830s and '40s. 3) Both Thomas, s/o Peter, and Hiram named sons, Allen, at a time when that name was uncommon.

Husband: Hiram THOMPSON
Birth: 1792/3, TN
Death: 1863, Jasper Co., MO (a civilian killed during the Civil War by Federal troups, 10 miles from his home in Jasper Co., MO)
Occupation: farmer
Father may be: Peter THOMPSON

Marriage-1:

Wife-1: Ms. __?__

Marriage-2: 2 Jun 1822, Ralls Co., MO

Wife-2: Elizabeth DALE / DAILE
Birth: 1803/4, TN
Death: aft. 1860 census
Occupation: homemaker
Father: John DALE
Mother: Nancy E. PARRIS, b. 1780/1, SC; m2. Mr. BENHAM

Child with Wife-1:

1. (Daughter A) THOMPSON, b, 1815/6 — may be Cyntha/Cynthia THOMPSON, b. 1816, KY

I have no proof this daughter is Cynthia (THOMPSON) WOODSON, the evidence is entirely circumstantial, but she is the right age in the right place at the right time with the right surname, and she named a son, Hiram T. WOODSON.

Children with Elizabeth DALE:

— born in Ralls Co., MO:
2. (Daughter B) THOMPSON, b. 1822-25
3. Isham THOMPSON, b. 1825/6
4. Allen THOMPSON, b. 1827/8
5. (Son A) THOMPSON, b. 1825-30; d. by 1840

— born in MO, either Ralls or Monroe Co.:
6. Talitha / Telitha THOMPSON, b. 1831/2
7. Mary Ann THOMPSON, b. 1832/3
8. Thomas THOMPSON, b. 1837/8

— born in MO, either Monroe or Jasper Co.:
9. Hiram THOMPSON, b. 1840/1
10. Sarah THOMPSON, b. 1842/3 or 6 Feb 1844
11. John THOMPSON, b. 1845/6
12. Phoebe THOMPSON, b. 1848/9

"Talitha" and "Talithacumi" are scriptural words turned into names, from the phrase, "Talitha cumi," meaning "damsel arise" (Mark 5:41); Talitha it is not a nickname for "Tabitha," which is Aramaic/Hebrew for "gazelle." "Telitha" is a misspelling.
