FAMILY GROUP RECORD

Most notes on this family come from "Family History" taken in 1947 from John Thacker (son of the John Shown as child # 2 here). Nathaniel and John Thacker reportedly taught school in VA. They also operated the Thacker coal Mines in Thackertown (Currently Mingo County West Virginia). John first appears in Laurel County KY tax list 1844. Pettis Thacker first shows 1841 and Jonathan Thacker in 1843 Laurel County. Please do not assume all this information to be correct since the man being interviewed was elderly and clearly confused on some facts. Please note he claimed 2 brothers named John.
