Calif. Families Gard Guard - Thomas Family Legacy | Contact |
Henry Massengill and Mary Cobb (Thomas ancestors) were prominent plantation owners with their own statue in eastern Tennessee in the 1700's.
Our real legacy is from a poor Ohio coal miner, Jonathan Sikes, who failed at gold mining around Chico and moved to the Davis area, took up farming and got a land grant for a farm in Tremont, an area eastern Solano county just north of Davis.
