According to my records Janey Thomasson was the daughter of William Thomasson and Mary Estes. I am sure that William was born in Virginia.
I believe his father was George Thomasson Sr. born 1703 in Caroline County, VA-death unknown.
George's father was Thomas Thomasson born 1746 in London, England and died in VA about 1730. (the immigrant)

A Son From William's First Marriage....
......William Thomason/Thomasson, Jr. was born March 1751 in Louisa County, Virginia. He served in the Revolutionary War, first while living in Orange County, Virginia, he entered service 2 September 1780, and served three months through the last day of December. He next served as a volunteer for one month in the state of North Carolina against the Tories, while living in Henry County, Virginia (1781) He then marched from Henry County, Virginia, and was present at the Seige of York and the surrender of Lord Cornwallis.
......William was living on Big Leatherwood Creek, in Henry County, Va. when he entered service. He later moved to the state of Georgia, where he died in 1844 at the age of 93.
William was the son of George Thomasson (b. 10 Nov. 1703 Louisa Co., Va. d. 22 Aug. 1783 in Louisa County, Virginia) and Mary Pollard (b. Nov. 6, 1706 in Louisa County, Va. and d. 1783 in Louisa County, Va.).
Upon his father George's death August 22, 1783, William inherited 200 acres plus plantation, in Trinity Parish, Louisa Co., Virginia. According to George's will, William was already living on the plantation.
William left Louisa County, and moved to southwestern Virginia, settling in Henry County, Virginia. He was the first of this line of Thomassons to settle in Henry County. It is unclear when William Sr., moved to Henry County, probably c. 1780, as his son William Jr. (believed to be from his first marriage), was living on Big Leatherwood Creek, Henry County in 1780/1781, when William, Jr. served in the Revolutionary War. William, Sr. purchased 100 acres of land on Leatherwood Creek in 1793. It is unclear if the younger William (the son) was the first to move to Henry Co., and the father William, Sr. followed, or if WIliiam Sr. was the first to arrive, bringing son William,Jr., and the children from his second marriage with him.
William married twice and fathered 22 children. Records are unclear regarding his wives. His first wife may have been Mary Estes who died in 1769 and his second wife may have been Sarah Turner. William, Sr. was probably buried on his plantation on Leatherwood Creek. In his will (Henry County Will Bk. 2 pg 40) he refers to his wife and lists eleven of his twenty two children. It appears that the children from his first marriage were excluded from his will. More research is needed to determine the mother of his first set of children, and the mother of his second set of children. All of the children were probably born in Louisa County.
