Elizabeth Mace Thompson, was the daughter of Missouri pioneer, poet and school teacher Henry Tomson. She was born near Reidville in Rockingham County, North Carolina. Her father Henry migrated to Hardeman County, Tennessee in 1826 where he became the very first school teacher in
that frontier region of southwestern Tennessee. In 1842 Elizabeth's family settled in or near Brazito where her father Henry Tomson later purchased 40 acres of land formerly known as the old Tomson homestead in Clark Township just west of Brazito and which today is owned by Carrender family. Two books of her father Henry Tomson's published poetry were printed in the late 1980's by Mary Lou Roberts, and are entitled "The Capers of Sots" and "The
Collected Poetry of Henry Tomson."
