I am searching for any information on the Thorp family in the area of Fannin, Lamar, and Red River Counties in Texas. The 1860 Lamar Cty, Tx census shows G. Thorpe, 50, b. N. C., R. Thorpe, 36,b. Tn., Ark. 10, b. Tn., Jno. 14, b. Tn., and J. A. 7, b. Ark. Willis J. Wilkins married Arkansas Thorp in Red River on May 4, 1866. Tracing back to Tennessee I found in the 1850 census for Fayette County Tn. Gilliam Thorp, 44, b. N.C., Rebecca J, 26, B. Ky., Presley, 18, b. N.C. Any connection? If anyone has any info about this family it would be appreciated.
