Notes

There is some question about this Thomas Jameson's military service, death and burial.

There is no concrete evidence linking him to the military service listed here. However the circumstantial evidence is compelling. The age (and therefore the date of birth) is correct, as is the "from" location, Antrim, NH. Furthermore, we know of no other possible Thomas Jameson from New Hampshire, at that time, any/all others otherwise accounted for. Furthermore his mother Mary, and (at least) brother James, can be found living south of the Buffalo area, in Allegany Co., NY, after the war of 1812. Unfortunately, we do not know of Thomas' whereabouts during that same time.

The death date and location is as listed by E.O. Jameson in the Jamesons in America (p.430). We have no corroboration for that, nor any known burial site. There is however evidence of possible 1850-60 census information and military pension records for a feasible Thomas Jameson from that area of Illinois.
