If you have any information about the Thomson family, please contact Charles Poynton who maintains this site. That information may be then included in the site.

A former Director of the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration is also a descendant of the Thomson family. The efforts of Thomas O. Payne are acknowledged, as is the expense involved in paying a UK researcher to ferret out the history of the Thomson family.
