      Clara Wilson, 2 Sep 2002:

      "Joseph Thomas married Charlotte Price, August 2, 1813. They supposedly divorced and Mrs. Charlotte Thomas married David Humphrey, March 19, 1817. Various researchers have listed this Joseph as the son of General John and I have accepted their research but will need to find original records to verify their beliefs. This Joseph supposedly moved to Illinois with some of his brothers."
