J. THOMPSON was born in Washington township, Columbiana Co., Sept. 23, 1843.  John Thompson was brought up on his father's farm, where he remained until he was twenty-seven years old.  During this time he availed himself of such advantages of education as his neighboring school then provided; being desirous of having a good education, he spent much time outside of school with his books, and by this application secured a fair English education.      J. J. Thompson was thoroughly trained in farm work, and, preferring this to any other business, he now owns and lives on the farm formerly owned by his father.  A representation of this home, as also portraits of his father, mother, wife, and himself, maybe seen in this work.      May 5, 1870, Mr. J. J. Thompson married Mary J., daughter of John and Phoebe Armstrong.  They have two children, - John B. and Hallie O.  Mr. Thompson and his amiable wife are now in possession of a pleasant home and many friends, which they fully appreciate and enjoy.  They are in the full vigor of life, and we hope they may have many years of usefulness before them.
