1841...1850 - Thomas appears on the tax lists of Whitley Co., KY.  
His land is described as being on the Clear Fork or Elk Fork.  

       1850 - Thomas gives his birthplace as TN.  Since he began 
showing up on the tax list at the age of 31, we must conclude 
that he moved to Whitley Co., probably from Campbell Co., TN.  
There is no record of his first marriage because the Campbell Co. 
records are only extant from 1838 onward.
