Notes and Other Records
To do:
Proof of lineage notes:
- 1820 census shows Thomas Sosbe living close to Thomas Sosbe Jr.
- 1828 delinquent tax list shows Thomas Sosbe Sr. living close to Thomas Sosbe Jr.
- 1830 census shows Thomas Sosbe living close to Thomas Sosbe Jr.
- 1840 census shows Thomas Sosbe living close to Thomas Sosbe Jr.
Thomas Sosbe was born about 1770 based on census records.
Found marriage record for Thomas Sosby and Judith Avery, married on 01 May 1786 in Snodland, Kent, England. So doesn't look like Judith Avery is correct wife!
In 1789, Thomas traveled with his brother Daniel from Pennsylvania to Kentucky (per Barbara Daly: "Daniel and Thomas Soesbe went to Kentucky around 1789. They are very apparently brothers, but I have no direct proof.").
Daniel was a Revolutionary War soldier. In Daniel's pension file, his parents are documented as Thomas and Jemima Soesbe. Assuming that Daniel and Thomas are indeed brothers, then Thomas's parents were also Thomas and Jemima.
