He was also superin-tendent of the national schools of the district, having spent seven years at Glasgow Uni-versity, where he received the degree of B.A. The grandparents of J. C. Thompson were reared at Belfast, and his grandfather was a stock-broker. Mr. Thompson received his education at home under private tutors, and then served an apprenticeship to the grocery business at Londonderry.

p. 539
"ANDREW PURDY THOMPSON, Pittsburgh, was born in Hopewell township, York county, Pa., May 22, 1810, and first came to Pitts-burgh in 1835. His grandfather, Archibald Thompson, a Scotch Covenanter, the ancestor of the Thompsons of York county, came from Scotland about the year 1735, and took up what was then known as the "Black run tract,' in Lancaster county, near the Mary-land line, now in Hopewell township, York county wbich tract or farm, after the lapse of one hundred and fifty years, is still the home and in the possession of his grandson, Archi-bald Thompson, at this writing eighty-six years of age.
Archibald Thompson (the first) married Margaret Wallace, the daughter of Alexan-der Wallace, another Scotch Covenanter,who came to this country about 1780, and in whose log house "Old Guinston Church," one of the first Seceder congregations in America, was organized. Alexander, their first son, served in the revolutionary war in Capt. Maffit's company. Joseph, their second son, married Mary Purdy, daughter of Archibald Purdy. another Covenanter. from the north of Ireland, and to this couple were born ten children, the youngest of whom is the subject of this sketch.
Andrew P. Thompson spent his youth on his father's farm, with such slender opportunities of schooling as country districts afforded in the beginning of the present cent-ury. Books were not abundant., but the Bible, the Psalms (Rouse's version), the Shorter Catechism gave ample exercise for memorizing, and Pilgrim's Progress, Gospel Sonnets, Marrow of Modern Divinity and one or two others of like character in poetry and fiction comprised the library of that day.
The minister was always ready to help any boy who cared for his book, and before long we find our subject teaching school in his own county, and afterward in Newville, Cumberland county, whence, after teaching and preparing himself, he came to Western Pennsylvania, and entered Jefferson College, Cannonsburg, teaching during his vaca-tions. After one or two years spent at col-lege he came to Allegheny City, where he became the principal of the Fourth ward public school, which was then in the base-ment of a Seceder (now the Second U. P.) church. Here he began studying for the ministry, but lack of means to regularly prosecute his studies, and the necessities of his little family&emdash;he having married in the meantime&emdash;compelled him to give over this cherished hope. In 1847 he was sent by the church as a missionary to the Island of Trin-idad, West Indies, where he and his wife were stationed nearly three years. On their return he became the agent of the Young Men's Bible society of Allegheny county, a position he has filled almost without interruption ever since.
Originally a whig in politics, then an abolitionist, he was present in Lafayette hall at the birth of the republican party, from whose principles he never swerved except upon the candidacy of Horace Greeley for president. An United Presbyterian in faith, a prohibitionist from conviction, he has spent the last fifty years of his life in this com-munity, respected by all men for his quiet, blameless integrity. In 1844 he married Elizabeth Donaldson, daughter of Andrew Donaldson and Jane McBurney, his wife, whose progenitors, Scotch and Scotch-Irish, first settled in Chester county, and coming west were among the early settlers of Wash-ington county, Pa. Jane McBurney's grandfather, John, the son of a justice of the peace in County Down, Ireland, came to this country when a young man, and, not finding employment quickly, enlisted in the British army and was present at Braddock's defeat, July 9, 1755.
Of the eight children of Andrew P. and Elizabeth (Donaldson) Thompson, seven grew to maturity: William Reed, Andrew D. (a physician, who died in Philadelphia), Joseph Alexander; James H., M. D., practic-ing in Pittsburgh; Jennie E. and Ella N. are unmarried; Anna M. is the wife of Otto G. Schultz. of C. J. Schultz & Sons, bridge-builders. Mrs. Thompson having died in 1872, in 1879 Mr. Thompson married Miss Lydia W. McKee, of Allegheny City.
William Reed Thompson was born in Allegheny City, was taken when a child to the island of Trinidad, attended the public schools of Pittsburgh until twelve years old, was employed for five years in the U. P. board of publication under Rev. Dr. Rodgers. During this time he enlisted in the Union army, but was taken out by his father. In 1864 he entered the 100-days service in Knap's Independent Battery, and on his return was employed by Hart, Caughey & Co., bankers, where he remained for four years, meanwhile pursuing his studies and reciting after hours to Prof. Lewis Bradley, formerly in charge of the observatory. Failing to get to college, he entered the Mechanics' National Bank, where he served for fourteen years, beginning as bookkeeper and ending as president. Having bought the interest of John B. Jones, Esq., in the bank-ing-house of Semple & Jones, which then took the name of Semple & Thompson, he resigned his position in the Mechanics' National Bank, devoting his attention to his own business. He is still a director in the Mechanics' National Bank, the treasurer of some of the most prominent charities of this city, a member of the Third Presbyterian Church, and a republican in politics. Mr. Thompson was married to Mary, daughter of William Thaw, a prominent and charitable citizen of Pittsburgh, and they have two children."

"JOHN THOMPSON, farmer, postoffice Monroeville, was born in County Armagh, Ireland, in 1811. His parents, John and Eliza-beth (McMullen) Thompson, came to Pennsylvania in 1812, and settled soon after on the farm where our subject now resides. The father died at the age of one hundred and two, and the mother at the age of forty-five. They reared four sons, of whom the eldest and youngest are now deceased: James, John, William and Alexander. John has passed his life in the township, always residing on the home farm. He has been a lifelong republican, and bears the soubriquet of 'Honest John.' In 1848 he married Mary McKnight, a native of Washington county, daughter of Joseph and Elizabeth (Connor) McKnight. Of thirteen children born to Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, six died in infancy. The following are the names and residences of the others: William and John, in Cannonsburg, Ohio; Anna Mary. wife of Frank McClure, in Patton township; Nancy Jane, wife of David Clements, in Plum; James, in Patton; Elmer, with his parents, and Rebecca, wife of George Anderson, in Murrysville.

He mar-ried Ellen Davis, who was of Welsh descent, and to them were born sixteen children, of whom fourteen attained maturity, viz.: Nancy, James, Elizabeth, Thomas, Mary, John, William, Davis, Robert, Isabella, Samuel, Sarah, Ellen, Benjamin. John Thompson enlisted to go to the war of 1812, but was not accepted on account of his age. He bought land in Ross township, now Shaler, upon which his children are living. He was an earnest and active member of the Presbyterian Church, and died on the home-stead, at the age of eighty-five years. Politic-ally he was a democrat. Our subject, Will-iam Thompson, married Mary, daughter of Archie Hazlet. She died Aug. 7, 1881, the mother of six children: Mrs. Isabella Haney, Rebecca J., Elizabeth, Emma, William and John.

In history of Patton township, John and Eli Meyers are included in a list of residents prior to 1830.

p. 488
"ELI MYERS, merchant, Monroeville, was born in Patton township, October 6, 1830. The family name is evidently of German origin, and is a historic one in that township. It was at the house of Mr. McElroy, Mrs. Myers' grandfather, that Gen. Washington found shelter after an involuntary bath in the Allegheny. Eli Myers, grandfather of our subject, at one time owned the mill in Wilkins township, on Thompson's run, in Turtle Creek village. His son, William, married Jane Carr, a native of Patton, and died when the subject of our sketch was small. When seven years old Eli was bound out to Robert Beatty, and reared and educated on a farm in Patton township. For many years he worked Mr. Beatty's farm, and in 1880 he opened a store at Monroeville. Next year he was appointed postmaster, and has held the office ever since. He is a republican, and has served eight years as township supervisor and two years a s tax-collector. The family is associated with the Presbyterian Church. August 8, 1854, Mr. Myers married Maria, a daughter of Robert McElroy, and they had a family of eight children: Robert E. (at home), Mary (wife of Robert Swishelm, in Wilkins), Sarah G. and James (in Penn township), Lizzie H. (assistant postmaster), Rachel A., Maggie, S.K. and Virginia Etta (at home). The second child, Fulton McElroy, died in infancy."
RENO
p. 203 Francis
In history of Leet township: "The first religious services by regular appointment in Sewickley valley were conducted by Rev. Francis Reno, an Episcopal clergyman. For the year beginning May 1, 1798, his support was provided by subscriptions from [list of subscribers] The aggregate amount subscribed was twenty-nine dollars and three cents, thirty-six and one-half bushels of corn, one bushel of wheat and an equal quanitty of rye, the latter to be delivered at Daniel Leet's mill. The place of worship was the barn of John Way. Sr., on lot No. 2 in Leet's district. There is reason to believe that Mr. Reno continued to preach here until 1808 or 1809, but no organization of the Protestant Episcopal Church resulted in consequence."
pp. 397-398 Francis, Charles
"CAPT. A. D. RENO, postoffice Putnam, captain and pilot on the Ohio, is of French origin, his ancestors having left their native land and settled in Virginia about the year 1710. Three brothers were the pioneers of this family in America, and from on e of these, Louis Reno, the subject of this sketch is descended. Louis Reno had a son named John, who had a son named Benjamin. Benjamin came to Allegheny county about the year 1765, and settled on the right bank of Chartiers creek, opposite to what is now called Bower hill, where he took up some four hundred acres of land, on which he lived until his death, which occurred about the year 1803. There were born to Benjamin and his wife Jane (nee Bell) six sons and one daughter, viz.: William, Robert, Zachariah, Benjamin, Charles, Louis and Susannah, who married Benjamin Jackson. The third son, Zachariah, was born on the farm, on the banks of Chartiers creek, in the year 1776, and became a coal-dealer, having had some land underlaid with rich coal veins. Born to Zachariah and his wife, Martha, were seven sons - Louis, Benjamin, John, Francis, Samuel, Henry and Alfred, and two daughters - Amanda (married to Christopher L. Magee, who for many years was engaged in the hat and fur trade, and during the war was sutler in the army) and Minerva (married to Samuel Clarke, who was a pilot on the Ohio river). Louis, the oldest son of Zachariah and father of the subject of this memoir, was also born near the banks of Chartiers creek, in the year 1798.
He married Anna E. Frisbee, daughter of Ephraim Frisbee, who started, in 1808, the first boatyard at what is called the Point, in Pittsburgh. Louis, like his father Zachariah, was also engaged in the coal business they being the first parties engaged in running coal in boats to Cincinatti and Louisville. There were born to Louis and Anne E. eleven children, six of whom are living, viz.: Amanda J. (wife of Capt. R. M. Boles), Cornelia (wife of Col. W. L. Foulk, of the United States army), Capt. John L., Louis A., Alfred D. and William S. Alfred D., the fifth son of Louis, was born in Allegheny City, and is now living in Chartiers borough, near Mansfield, Allegheny county, Pa.; was educated under the tutorship of John Kelley, of Allegheny City, and at Duff's College, Pittsburgh, Pa.
