In 1880, 31 year old farmer Felix Hesson lived in Enoch Twp., Noble County, Ohio with his wife Kate (25) and children Daisy (6), John (4), and Edith (10 mos). The children were not old enough to attend school. Adjacent farms in the census belonged to Felix's father John Hesson, and Lurana Shimp (Schrimp?).
According to the 1880 census, Kate Hesson's parents were born in Ireland.
In the 1970s and 80s, Catherine Foreaker Fedorchak published a family history column in Woodsfield, Ohio newspaper "The Spirit of Democracy." A copy of one of her articles was sent to Lynn Coburger by Donna Safigan. The original source of the copy was Mildred Archer, now deceased.
Catherine Fedochak cites a William Archer as her source of information. The article states, in part:
Freeman was born Washington Co. . Pa. Feb. 25, 1845, and moved to Ohio with his parents in the fail of 1864. His mother was Ann S. Hetherington Thompson. The family settled in Monroe Co. near the Noble Co. line.
Freeman enlisted in the 116th Keg. Co. F. 3 Nov. 1862 and served throughout the Civil War. At the battle of Fort Gregg 2 April 1865 he distinguished himself and was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor. This is written up in Howe's Ohio History and HISTORY NOBLE CO. by Watkins, p. 292-93.
According to that source, Thompson and his comrades reached the last ditch and in order to scale the parapets, they used each other as ladders and commenced the ascent. Thompson was struck with a musket and had several ribs broken and pushed down to the ditch, but in a short time was again at the top of the human ladder fighting with a musket loaded and handed to him by his comrades below. As result of this determination, the fort was taken, and Congress awarded Thompson and his comrades the Medal of Honor. He also witnessed the surrender at Appomattox, and was part of the company that carried the Confederate Flags surrendered there to Washington D.C. There is supposed to be a picture of Freeman and the 12 men who carried the flags, perhaps the National Archives, or the Ohio Historical Society may have a copy. On Sept. 13, 1866, Freeman married Mary E. Archer d/o Stephen, Nathan, James I. Freeman served two terms as sheriff of Noble Co. He did not run for a third term because of poor health, the broken ribs he received in the War never healed properly. He lost his wife and 3 children in Nov. and Dec. of 1879 and his second wife, was Amanda Archer, d/o John, Simon, James I. He died 10 Aug. 1887, His wife died in 1936 in Carlisle. Although Freeman is claimed by Noble Co., he lived in Franklin Twp. Monroe from 1854 to 1861.
Mr. Win. Archer states that on the 2nd floor of the Pentagon Building, in a "Hall of Heroes" dedicated by President Lyndon Johnson, for recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor. In the Civil War grouping, is a metal bar engraved with the name Thompson, Freeman C., Corporal U.S.A.
Mr. Archer states that he has other information on Freeman Thompson, including the names and dates of his children, which he would be glad to share with others interested in this family. Freeman's older brother, Wm. Thompson was Mr. Archer's great-grandfather, and also served in the Civil War. Among the family memorabilia Archer has a piece of the uniform of Win. Thompson.
