THOMPSON
Harris Thompson was reared in Laurens County and later moved to Greenville
County near Prinston on Joe Sullivan's Place. When about middle age he
bought the old Thompson place in Dunklin Township near Columbia Church.
Harris and Lucindy lived here for the remainder of their lives with their
family. We think Harris Thompson's mother was not married.

Harris Thompson was born 1798 in SC died 1873 in Greenville Co., SC buried
at Greenville, Greenville Co., SC - Columbia Baptist Ch. Graveyard. Harris
married Lucinda (Lucindy) Graydon (Gradden, Graden, I have seen it spelled
several ways) on ?. Lucinda was born abt 1806 and died 1881, buried at
Greenville, Greenville Co., SC - Columbia Baptist Ch. Graveyard. 

Harris and Lucindy had 17 children:
James, b. abt 1830

My family has tried in vain for years to locate the parents and siblings of
Harris Thompson and that of his wife's. If, and that's a big if, you should
have some spare time, anything you might run across would be greatly
appreciated.

Sincerely,
