Hello, Thompson Cousins,

I wish I had a match for you, Sharon, but I don't.  However, several times
I have seen messages (probably yours) asking about William Philander.
This time I couldn't resist writing.  I wonder if the name Philander could
be associated with the name Flanders?  Just a longshot, but I am
researching the family of Flanders Thompson, Rev. War Pensioner from VA to
SC.  Flanders married Elizabeth Green, and their children were: Henry b.
1782, Leana, Joel Green, John, Flanders jr. b. c1800 (this line I'm
researching), Temperance, Mary Ann "Polly", and Elizabeth.  

In 1823, Flanders Sr. and wife Elizabeth (and daughters Tempy, Elizabeth
and Polly), were living with their son Henry, in Pendleton Dist, SC.
After Flanders died, some of them went to GA.  I don't know what happened
to Henry, Joel Green and John.  They could have gone anywhere.  I would
love to hear from anyone who might know of:

Henry Thompson b. 14 Mar 1782 probably SC
Leana Thompson  (married who?)
Joel Green Thompson b. c.1784-1788
John Thompson b. c. 1788-1799
Temperance "Tempy" Thompson b. c 1805

I also have no Idea where Flanders Sr. was born.  He served from VA.  I
don't know who his parents were, or where they were from.  The name Waddy
was used for male descendants, so one of the many Waddy Thompsons was
probably somewhere in the ancestry. 

Do you think the name Philander could have been Flanders????

Thanks,
Jean
