:   Thank you for any help!  
:  
: I have general information that led me to  
: this historical society. I'm searching here  
: first because of the specific mention of  
: "Bladensburg" below.  
:  
: History of Clermont County, Ohio, with  
: illustrations and biographical sketches of  
: its prominent men and pioneers.  The entry  
: below is from this book:  History of

:  
: "The grandfather of the subject of this  
: sketch was William Thomas, born on the  
: Eastern Shore of Maryland; while his  
: great-grandfather was John Thomas, who came  
: to America from Wales about the year 1681,  
: was a very large planter, and served for  
: years as high sheriff in the Maryland  
: Colony."  
:  
: Later in the entry:  
:  
: "...and comes of an old Revolutionary  
: stock long lived and famous in the early  
: annals of the country. His grandfather  
: William Thomas, of Bladensburg, District of  
: Columbia, was captain of a troop of horse  
: Minute-Men in the Revolution and served  
: under "Light-Horse Harry Lee."   
: (also mentioned in the entry is that William  
: had a brother named James)  
:  
: The children of William Thomas (wife  
: possibly named Elizabeth) are as follows:  
: Nathan Thomas b1775-?  
: Basil Thomas b1777-1865  
: James Thomas 1779-1858  
: William Thomas 1781-?  
: Elender Thomas 1783-?  
: Ruth Thomas 1785-?  
: Thomas Thomas 1788-1871

: Fanny S Thomas 1797-?  
: Evan Thomas 1799-?  
: Darcus Thomas 1800-?  
: Samuel Thomas 1805-1882 (born in PA)  
:  
: So far, we have been able to track a few of  
: William's children.  
:  
: Thank you so much!
