BIOGRAPHICAL
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
W.B. Thomasson
W.B. Thomasson, farmer, Murfreesboro, Ark.
There are a number of men prominently identified with the agricultural
affairs of this county, but among them none are more deserving of mention
than W.B. Thomasson, who was born in York District, S.C., in 1823. He was
the elder of two children born to James and Jane (Barron) Thomasson,
natives of South Carolina, where the father followed agricultural pursuits.
The mother died when our subject was an infant, and the father died in
Georgia in 1832. The paternal grandfather, William Thomasson, was a native
of North Carolina, and a soldier in the Revolutionary War. The maternal
grandfather was a merchant of Ebenezerville, made a large fortune, and died
in 1840. W.B. Thomasson was reared on the farm until fourteen years of age,
and then entered school at Franklin, Ga., where he remained two years.
After this he began the study of law, was admitted to the bar when but
nineteen years of age, under a special act of the Legislature, and at once
began the practice of his profession in the town of Franklin. In the spring
of 1862 he raise a company at home, was elected captain, and soon went to
the front, where he was attached to the Forty-first Regiment Georgia
Infantry and was in the battles of Corinth, Perryville, Missionary Ridge
and in the battles of Georgia, siege of Vicksburg, Jonesboro, on the
Georgia campaign, and at Bentonville, where the last gun was fired. He then
returned to Georgia and resumed the practice of law. In 1872 he came to
Arkansas, settled in Clark County for three years and then came to Pike
County, where he has since remained. He was appointed county clerk, wa soon
after elected at a special election and served three terms in succession.
He practiced his profession for a short time and at the expiration of his
term of office returned to a farm five miles southeast of town, which
consisted of 500 acres. He now has 700 acres, of which 110 acres are under
cultivation, and he is rapidly opening more. He has erected good buildings,
planted an excellent orchard, and is one of the most enterprising farmers
of the county. He was married in 1847 to Miss Mary Stewart, a native of New
Jersey and the fruits of this union have been ten children: James S. (mar-
ried), Walter (died at the age of nineteen years), Charles (resides at
Arkadelphia), Horace J. (married and resides on the farm with his father),
W.B. (resides in California), Joe, Robert and Samuel J. Mrs. Thomasson is a
member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and socially, Mr.
Thomasson is a member of the Masonic fraternity, Pike Lodge No. 91.

County, pages 340-341.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
James S. Thomasson
In writing the biographies of prominent citizens of Pike County, mention
should certainly be made of the gentlemen whose name heads this sketch. His
father, William B. Thomasson, was born in 1824, in South Carolina, and in
1847 was united in marriage at Summerville, Ga., to Miss Mary A. Stewart, a
native of New Jersey, born in 1827. The result of this union was the birth
of (ten) children, - (nine) boys and one girl - eight of whom are still
living, viz., James S., Walter S., Horace J., Charles R., William B.,
Nicholas T., Mary A., Joseph B., Robert L. and Samuel J. Mr. Thomasson is a
lawyer and planter by occupation. He has practices law for thirty-three
years, and has been prominently identified with the interests of the
communities in which he has resided at various times. During the (Civil)
war he served in the Confederate army as captain of Company I, Forty-first
Regiment, Georgia Volunteers. In 1872 he emigrated from Georgia to
Arkansas, locating in Clark County, where he resided three years, and them
emigrated to Pike County, where he is still living. His wife is a member of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The immediate subject of this sketch
was born in Franklin, Heard County, Ga., on April 21, 1848, where he was
reared and received his education. In 1864 he ran away from home and
enlisted in the Confederate service in Beall's battalion, McCoy's brigade,
and served until the close of the war. At the surrender he was at
Doctortown, Ga., and immediately after that event took place he returned
home and resumed his studies at school for three years. November 15, 1874,
he was married to Miss Jane C. Waldrop, a native of South Carolina, and to
this union have been born eight children, viz., Laura, Blanche, Oscar,
Emily, Mary, Hugh, and Joseph. The eighth child died in infancy. Our
subject is a planter by occupation, and owns 400 acres of good land, with
eighty acres under cultivation. Mr. Thomasson has served as county examiner
for two years, and as county surveyor for nine years, in which latter
capacity he is still serving. He is actively interested in educational and
religious matters, and is a good citizen. Both he and wife are members of
the Baptist Church.

N.T. Thomasson
N.T. Thomasson, physician, Murfreesboro, Ark.
In presenting in this work brief biographical sketches of representative
citizens of the county, among those in the medical profession is very
properly given a short review of the life of Dr. Thomasson, and of his
identification with the town of Murfreesboro. His parents, W.B. and Mary A.
(Stewart) Thomasson, were natives of South Carolina and New Jersey,
respectively, and the father was a lawyer by profession. He moved to Clark
County, Ark., in 1873, then to Pike County in 1875, and in 1876 was elected
circuit clerk, which position he filled in an able and satisfactory manner
for seven years. He has now retired to his farm, five miles south of town.
Dr. N.T. Thomasson was reared in Georgia until fourteen years of age, and
received a good practical education in the common schools. He came with his
parents to Clark County in 1873, but in 1875 went to New York, and attended
school at Watkins, where he remained until the fall of 1877. He then went
to Michigan, entered Hope College at Holland, where he remained six months,
and then returned to Arkansas. Here he at once began reading medicine under
Dr. McKethan, and after a certain length of time he went to Arkadelphia,
where he was in a drug store until the spring of 1879. In the fall of that
year he entered the Medical College at Little Rock, and graduated in March,
1881. He then returned to Murfreesboro, and at once began the practice of
his profession. He was married, in 1885, to Miss Mollie Bryant, of Bingen,
Hempstead County, Ark., and to them were born two children - Annie Pearl
and May. The Doctor has gained a widespread reputation as a faithful and
skillful practitioner, and as a physician, and personally is highly
esteemed.

Joseph B. Thomasson
Prof. Joseph B. Thomasson, Murfreesboro, Ark. This prominent and very
successful educator is a native of Heard County, Ga., his birth occurring
two miles west of Franklin, September 3, 1862, and is the son of W.B. and
Mary A. (Stewart) Thomasson, the father a native of South Carolina, and the
mother of New Jersey. Prof. Joseph B. Thomasson was the eighth of ten
children, and was principally reared in Arkansas, receiving his education
in the leading schools of this State. This he improved very materially, by
individual efforts, and when twenty years of age, started in life to battle
for himself. He first engaged in the mercantile business, as a partner in
the store of Thomasson & Bro., at Murfreesboro, and continued thus engaged
for five years. They then discontinued business, and since that time the
Professor has been engaged in teaching school. He has been very successful
in this profession, and is considered one of the best educators and
disciplinarians in the county. He is young, enterprising and energetic, and
full of that push and perseverance that secure success in whatever is
undertaken. He also enjoys the respect and esteem of the entire community
of which he is a valued and honored member. In connection with teaching,
he has also carried on farming, but not to any great extent. In politics he
affiliates with the Democratic party, and takes an active part in all
political matters. He served a year and a half as post-master of
Murfreesboro, and filled that position in a very satisfactory manner. He
also served for some time as deputy clerk of this county. He is a liberal
supporter of all laudable public enterprises, and is what might be termed
as a self-made man.

HISTORY
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Good Showing
"That the public schools are increasing in popularity and usefulness is
undoubted. My first appointment as examiner of this county was in January,
1878, and during that year I licensed six teachers. Every district was in
debt, and hostility to public schools was universal and outspoken. Last
year I issued thirty-nine certificates to teachers, and this year have
issued forty-five. The districts are all out of debt, and men who, a few
years ago, worked against school tax, now vote and work for it. There are
no denominational schools in the county, and not many private schools are
taught." It will be seen from the above that the public schools of Pike
County are rapidly improving, and from the almost universal desire of the
people to still advance the grade and standard, we may soon expect to see a
much greater and more favorable change. There are several excellent schools
in the county, and the school at Murfreesboro, especially, shows most
favorably. There are taught besides the required branches, Latin, algebra,
analysis and physiology. This school is in charge of J.B. Thomasson, and
has an enumeration of eighty-seven. After the free session of four months
expires, he conducts a private term of six months.
Officials of the County
Among the county and other officers called upon to occupy positions of
usefulness are the following:
County Clerks - ... W.B. Thomasson, 1878-1884; J.O.A. Bush, 1884-1890
Surveyors - ... J.S. Thomasson, 1882-1890.
Murfreesboro
The other important business houses here (since the Civil War) have been
Haslip & Co., Owens & Conway, J.H. Holland, etc.; those all did a good
trade during their time. The business interests at the present day (1890)
are: ... W.D. Alford and N.T. Thomasson (physicians), ... The population
is 200. A good church (Methodist Episcopal, South) and an academy or free
school, and a Masonic lodge also flourish. The public buildings are the
court-house and jail.

One of William Pollard Thomasson's children, James Jackson Thomasson (1800-
1859) married Jane Martin Barron (1805-1827) and had two children before
her death. The children were: William Barron Thomasson (1823-1918); Thomas
Jefferson Thomasson (1825-1854). William died in Arkansas; Thomas died in
Georgia. I would be most interested in contacting any descendants of these
two individuals. Thanks so much!

I am trying to trace H.J. THOMASSON who married Alice BROWNING. Alice was
born October 1, 1856 and is the daughter of Richard Browning and Sabra
McCrary.
I have a marriage date for Mr. Thomasson and Alice of February 28, 1877 but
no location. The marriage could have possibly taken place in ARKANSAS.
I would appreciate anyone who can provide information. Thanks in advance!
