Today is Israel Thompson's birthday! Israel was born on this day in 1803. To celebrate here are some pictures of Israel and the family farm in Fort Ann, New York.

Israel was the great-grandfather of Bill (W.G.) Thompson. He maintained a 330 acres farm in Fort Ann, New York and the Thompson family home located there. The farm stayed in the family until 1958.

Today is William Baker Thompson's birthday! William was born on this day in 1838. To celebrate here are some pictures of William throughout his life.

William was one of the three brothers (with Gamallel Ingham and Royal Wheeler Thompson) to settle in Hudson after the Civil War and start the Osborn, Perkins and Company Banking House in Hudson (the bank would later be named Thompson Brothers Banking House and then finally in 1892 the Thompson's Savings Bank).

In 1884, William became appointed by President Chester A. Arthur to the Second Assistant Postmaster General. This document signed by the President is proudly on display at the Thompson House Museum's Visitor Center.
