Some Descendants of Thomas Jameson and Jane Dickey

Rita’s Family: Ancestors of Helen Spencer
These pages are a compilation of my work and that of others. You are welcome to use anything on this page, but be aware that although I have been as careful and accurate as possible, I am not a professional genealogist. I have been working on our genealogy for over 25 years, and started the website in 2005. Some of the lines I have researched myself; some, especially on Rita’s side, we inherited the research of other family members over the past 75 years. Still, the majority of these pages are limited to compilations from published books and what I could find on the internet. The target audience was and remains our family, so the family pages are limited to our own ancestors. I have set it up so that each page is one set of ancestors, with their descendants. For the most part I have limited my scope to their great-grandchildren (second cousins to us); in some cases I list sources which may continue further.		HOME

Thomas Jameson and Jane Dickey

164. Thomas Jameson was born 7 Nov 1732 (some have 1737) in Goochland or Albemarle County Virginia, and died 6 Apr 1830 in Jefferson County, Indiana. He is a son of Samuel Jameson [328] and Jane ___ [329]. Thomas married first, 1756 in Virginia,

Thomas served in the Albemarle County Militia during the early part of the French and Indian War (hostilities started 1754, but war was not declared until 1756). Thomas and Jane were married in 1756, and moved to Georgia in 1756 or 1757, where all their children were born. They were Presbyterian. Jane died in 1763, leaving five children aged 6 and under. Thomas moved back to Albemarle County with the children in 1763, and the following year married in Albemarle County, Hannah Taggart. Hannah was born 2 Apr 1745 in Ireland, and died 10 Jan 1830 in Jefferson County Indiana.

Thomas served in the Revolutionary War as a private from Virginia. Thomas and Hannah had four children before the Revolution, and five more after. They may have moved to Kentucky by 1790 -- at least several of their children did. They finally settled in Indiana, probably about 1814.
