DOWNING, RITCHIE, THOMPSON -
My ancestor was Alexander Thompson who married Margaret Ritchie in Prince Edward Co., Va on Dec 7, 1786. Marriage Bond was signed on Sept 4, 1786 and William Thompson (presumed to be the father of Alexander) signed and gave his consent for Alexander to marry. I am looking for information on William Thompson, father of Alexander. By 27 Jan 1787 Alexander and Margaret were in Lincoln Co., KY where William Thompson, Sr. gave him 200 acres of land. This same William, Sr. gave other land on 30 Jan 1787 to William Thompson, Jr. at same general location. William, Sr. signed land transfer documents with an "X" and William, Jr. with a signature ...signature does not match the signature on the Marriage Bond of 1786. I believe that William, Sr. was in Lincoln Co. by 1780 living on Clarks Run and Dougherty's Creek and in 1783 he built a grist mill at this location. Daughter, Jane Thompson married John Downing on 2 Jan 1783 in Lincoln Co., KY. John Downing was from Bedford Co., VA. Looking to resolve the realtionship between William, Sr., William, Jr. and Alexander. There was also a George Thompson in the same general area of Lincoln County during this period of time. Believe the key to this lies in Virginia. Thanks,
