Hi there. I also found a passenger record for Frank and Reba, and a Margaret Thompson, age 9, for Sept 25, 1951, on the SS Washington, arriving in New York, departing from Southwick, England. There residence is listed as Glen Mills, PA. I have also found a SSDI for a Reba Thompson, born 16 May 1896, died Nov 1981 in Shermans Dale, Perry, Pennsylvania. There are a couple Frank Thompsons in the SSDI who fit the bill. Would you have a date of birth for him?

I did find a Frank Thompson, born 2 Jan 1892, died Feb 1977 in Downington, Chester County, Pennsylvania. There were also a couple born in 1893 who died in Pennsylvania, but if yours was 1892, then this could be your guy.
