Thomas J Thomas, Wales
« on: Thursday 14 May 09 22:08 BST (UK) »
Searching for Thomas J Thomas and wife named Jane, from Wales - children Arthur, Maggie and Lina found on 1880 Census, living in Coulsontown, Delta, PA. Son Arthur came back to Wales to live. Think that Thomas still living with daughter Lina in Harford on 1910 Census.
Brother Morris and family settled in coal region sckullkill, PA.
Would like to locate descendants of Thomas, if possible
