"Rev. John Garrard's Family," child (1c), in Hardin County Historical Society, comp., Who Was Who in Hardin County, (Elizabethtown, KY: Elizabethtown News, 1944-1946).

This bio says that Joseph Hardin d. in Dubuque, Iowa, in 1850, and "in 1852 Mrs. THOMAS with all her family removed from Hardinsburg [Breckinridge Co.], Ky., to Linn county Iowa. In 1871 part of this family went to Walla Walla, Wash [Alfred and Wallace]. There are many descendants in Iowa and Washington."

Notes for ELIZABETH GOLDSBERRY:

Elizabeth Goldsberry Thomas, a daughter of Bennett Goldsberry, who was the son of Jonathan Goldsberry, a Baptist minister, born in England. Her mother was a Miss Pirtle and her grandmother, a Miss McBride.

At the death of Bennett Goldsberry, the widow married a Mr. Shields.

A son attending the University of Louisville, Ky., was drowned in the Ohio River, while bathing with his class. At a suggestion to get a certain object in the water, he dove for it but failed to come up. Whether he struck his head or took a cramp, was never known. He was considered as one of the best swimmers in Kentucky.

The Goldsberry's were quite well to do people. Elizabeth was educated in a convent at Baltimore, Maryland. While there she joined the Catholic Church. Her two sisters were Presbyterians. The Pirtles of Berkeley County, Virginia, are supposed to be related to Miss Pirtle (Birtle), who married Bennett Goldsberry, but so far we have not located any definite line.

It seems after the death of Jonathan and the mother married the Mr. Shields, he [who?] managed the estate; after the marriage of Elizabeth Goldsberry and Joseph Hardin Thomas, Joseph went to visit the wife's mother and stepfather, to collect the wife's share of inheritance. He was wined and dined, and the next morning when he was to start for his home, lo, not one of his 75 slaves were left down in the servants quarters; just one old toothless mammy was there. Shields had spirited them all [a]way in the night, loaded them on a flatboat and sent them down the Ohio River to New Orleans to the market.

Litigation and lawsuit after lawsuit followed until the death of Joseph, and nothing was ever accomplished. Wallace Boyd Thomas, remembered that every five and ten dollar gold piece taken in was carefully wrapped in tissue paper and put away to help carry on the lawsuit.

(Narrative told by Wallace Boyd Thomas to his daughter, Adah Thomas Strahan.)

Generation No. 2

2. ALFRED2 THOMAS (JOSEPH HARDIN1) was born 16 Apr 1828 in Hardinsburgh,Breckenridge,KY, and died 27 Sep 1896 in Walla Walla, WA Territory. He married (1) ELIZABETH ELEANOR LEWIS 10 Dec 1850 in Linn,IA1. She was born Abt. 1832 in Ohio, and died 08 Oct 1878 in Walla Walla, WA Territory. He married (2) MARGARET LEWIS 24 Sep 1879 in Walla Walla, WA Territory. She was born Abt. 1846 in Iowa.

Notes for ALFRED THOMAS:

ALFRED THOMAS was born in Hardinsburgh, Breckenridge county, Kentucky, on the sixteenth of April, 1828. His father was the proprietor of an extensive tannery in that place, and the tanner's trade, consequently, was that learned by Alfred before leaving home, which occurred in 1849, when he emigrated to Linn county, Iowa. In 1850, on the tenth of December, he was married to Miss Elizabeth E. Lewis, of Linn county, in that State. In 1870 he rented his Iowa farm and moved with his family to Walla Walla, and settled the same year on the place now occupied by him as a homestead. A view of the improvements and the east end of his farm accompanies this book. There are 660 acres of it, situated three miles east of Walla Walla city, through which, for one and one-fourth miles runs Mill creek. all is enclosed with fence, 360 acres are under cultivation, and the balance is timber and pasture land. There is an orchard with 2,100 bearing fruit trees including apple, peach, pear, plum, prune and apricot. In 1876 sixty acres of it produced 78 bushels of barley to the acre, and 125 acres produced 48 bushels of wheat to the acre. There are 80 acres of that farm upon which barley has been grown for nine consecutive years, and the last year it yielded 60 bushels to the acre. Nothing further need be said in regard to its productiveness. Mr. Thomas makes a specialty of growing hogs, and has at this time about 300 head. His crop of fruit in 1882 was sold by him for $3,000. To this add the grain product and it would seem to be enough business for one man to excel at. At the time of his purchasing the place, many considered it an exhibition of deficient knowledge of agriculture. But the years that he has spent in new countries in varied climes and upon different soils, had proved a school of experience that has caused him to take as a choice what he has, and the result has proved the wisdom of the selection. Yellow Hawk, the Cayuse chief, after whom the creek is named, is buried upon this farm, where he lived in the time when the Indian was "monarch of all he surveyed." Mrs. Elizabeth E. Thomas died october 8, 1878, leaving the following children: Sarah E., Ellen S., John G., Carrie E., Joseph Guy, Mary K., Eugene, Bertie, and Eliza. September 24, 1879, Mr. Thomas was again married, this time to Mrs. Margaret Lewis, a cousin of his former wife, who has one child, Lewis H., born July 1, 1880.

4. WALLACE BOYD2 THOMAS (JOSEPH HARDIN1) was born 03 Mar 1839 in Hardinsburgh,Breckenridge,KY, and died 02 Jun 1922. He married CATHERINE REBECCA LEWIS 17 Dec 1861 in Benton Co., IA. She was born 17 Dec 1843 in Linn, IA, and died 10 Dec 1915 in Walla Walla, Walla Walla, WA.

Notes for WALLACE BOYD THOMAS:

WALLACE B. THOMAS, a farmer living on Mill creek five miles northeast from Walla Walla, first moved to Washington Territory in June, 1871. Upon his arrival, he purchased the 320 acres of land which are included as a portion of the 500 acres constituting his present home farm. He had twice crossed the plains previous to this, but perhaps it would be a better way to go back and trace in brief the events of his life as they occurred. He was born in Hardinsburgh, Breckenridge county, Kentucky, March 3, 1839; and while a lad learned the tanner's trade from his father, JOSEPH H. THOMAS, who was an extensive manufacturer in this line. In 1852, after his father's death, the family moved to Linn county, Iowa, where Wallace purchased a ranch, and his mother lived with him until her death. December 17, 1861, he was married to Miss Rebecca C. Lewis, of Benton county, Iowa. In 1863 he became impressed with the fact that the West might contain a locality where, if he should go to it and settle, his condition in life would be materially improved, and following this prompting crossed the plains to Walla Walla in Washington Territory. He remained in this Territory over winter, found people generally of opinion that the country was not good for farming purposes, and returned to Iowa by way of Willamette valley, overland to California, and around by the Isthmus and New York. In 1865 he came again to Washington Territory, by way of the Isthmus to California, thence to Nevada, and through Boise City to Walla Walla; and went home the next year by way of Salt Lake. As he left this region in 1866, it was with the determination of selling his Eastern property and moving with his family to this Territory, which he did as indicated by us at the beginning of this sketch. The birth and names of the children of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas are: Ada E., October 30, 1862; Lucy R., May 12, 1865; Charles W., April 6, 1867; Denney G., July 12, 1869; Esther M., March 31, 1872; Melissa J., July 18, 1876; James B., August 27, 1878. Mr. Thomas is one of the active, energetic, and successful business farmers of the county, and is respected by those who know him. In politics he is on the order of independent, but believes strongly in the policy of a united grange movement. --Gilbert's Historic Sketches, Biographical Supplements (1882), pp.37-38

Notes for ALICE THOMAS:

Walla Walla Union Bulletin (Walla Walla, Washington) > 1950 > May > 21

Dixie of Today Much Changed Pioneer States

DIXIE – Mrs Alice McLaughlin, 76, life-long resident of the Dixie area, reports that the Dixie of 60 years ago was a much more impressive town than it is today.

Mrs McLaughlin said that around 1890, Dixie boasted three churches, two grocery stores, two blacksmith shops, a slaughterhouse, and "a lot more people".

Today, Dixie with a population of about 300 supports one church and one grocery store.

Mrs. McLaughlin’s parents, Johnathan and Pheraba Thomas, settled as homesteaders about two miles from Dixie in 1871. Although the town’s population was greater, Mrs McLaughlin said that as a girl she knew "every soul in Dixie".

"There was more cattle raising here in the old days," said Mrs. McLaughlin. "Now it seems to be mostly wheat and peas."

In 1940, Mrs McLaughlin moved into Dixie from the Spring Valley district, and she now resides in one of the oldest homes in town. The building was once part of a combination stage station and hotel for travelers. The stage station was once operated by Perry Johnson, Dixie pioneer.

As a girl, Mrs McLaughlin attended the Central school on the Middle Waitsburg road. She recalls that although Indians were no longer hostile, she was often frightened by traveling tribes as she walked to school.

Mrs McLaughlin’s son Earl now lives in Pendleton, and another son Guy, has lately moved from Walla Walla to Lewiston.
