John Alexander Thompson was born in Canada English and died in Belknap per his death certificate which lists his father as Scarf Thompson.
John arrived in the United States sometime between 1866 and 1868 based on census records.
He married first at about age 27 (in about 1874-75) probably in Michigan to Hannah M. [maiden name unknown]. This information found on 1910 census in which John indicated Margaret was his 2nd marriage w/ his 1st marriage when he was 27 yrs old and also on the 1880 census for Riley, St. Clair County, Michigan.
Listed with John and Hannah on the 1880 census are children:
Clara (b. c1874), Clarence (b. c1875), Cora (b. c1878), and Isaac (b. c1880).
According to a researcher of John's second wife's family, John married second to Margaret Ann Moore (b. abt 1866 in Canada) in about 1882-1883 in Port Huron, St. Clair County, Michigan. On the 1910 census, Margaret indicated she was 27 at time of 1st marriage to John which would put their marriage at about 1894, but this doesn't seem likely as on this same census, Margaret indicated she was the mother of 12 children but only 7 living at time of 1910 census. If married in 1894, Margaret would have had a child in almost every year so I tend to think they married before 1894.
The family appeared on the following census records:
1900 - Riley, St. Clair County, Michigan
1910 - Brockway, St. Clair County, Michigan
1920 - Belknap, Presque Isle County, Michigan.
The children of John and Margaret whose names we know from census records are:
William (b. c1884), Mernice (b. c1886), Arthur (b. c1887), Sara (b. c1888), Mable (b. 1891), Edna (b. c1895), Percy (b. c1899), Iva (b. c1904), Iler (b. 1904) and Leata Thompson (b. c1907)
Burial in this cemetery on March 14, 1920 per John's death certificate. Personal information on the death certificate for John was provided by his son, Percy.
