My grandfather was John Riley Thompson, He went by the name Riley. He was married unk time and place to Blanche Estella Morehead. She went by the name Stella. I believe she died around 1936 at an unknown location. I have no idea where either was born. Family Bible gives the following information.

John Riley Thompson, b. 1895(?) d. 1963
Father: Joseph Mathew Thompson (?)
Mother: Martha Ethel Davis (?)

Blanche Estella Morehead. b. (?) d. 1936 (?)
Father: Richard M. Morehead (?)
Mother: Cora (E) Alice(?) Howgy(?)

Riley Thompson lived in the Indian territories. I know he also lived in California for sometime. Family stories say he was married a couple of times. Family stories also say grandmother was Cherokee

I can find nothing on the name Howgy(?) it is possibly an anglicized Cherokee name.
