Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1990 D.B. Thompson (Los Osos, California), 8 7/8 x 11 1/4 inches tall x 1 1/2 inches thick blue buckram cloth hardcover, no dust jacket (as issued), white lettering to spine, unpaginated (approx. 400 pp.) Very slight soiling and rubbing to covers. A Family History Library (Salt Lake City) copy, with stamps, accession numbers and microfilm record to margin of first page in table of contents as the only apparent indication of this. Otherwise, a very good copy - clean, bright and unmarked - of this scarce genealogy. OCLC (No. 1043681124) locates only one copy worlwide - in Minnesota - apart from the Family History Library's microfilm version of this copy. Note that this is a heavy and oversized book, so additional postage will be required for international or priority orders. ~SP40~ [4.0P] Looks at the ancestry of, and traces the known descendants of, Francis Thom (1808-1895), who was born in Aberdeenshire, Scotland and came to the U.S. in 1856, settling in Wisconsin and later Steele County, Minnesota. He married Margaret Craigen (1813-1885) of Clatt, Scotland. Descendants live in Wisconsin, Oregon, Minnesota, Nebraska, South Dakota, Washington, California and elsewhere.
