WILLIAM W. THOMPSON passed away July 9, 1928 at his home in Coudersport. He was the son of Z. J. and Julia A. (Shuart) Thompson. Born at Mansfield, PA, Oct. 7, 1849. When a small child he with his parents and his sister, Ella, moved to Coudersport. Here he was educated in public and private schools and in 1865, at the age of 16 began his apprenticeship to the printing trade. In 1867 he purchased the Potter County Journal and was associated with Mrs. Vesta Dyke. Four years later he sold out to his partner, Mrs. Dyke, and went to Kansas. Three years later he was called home by the sickness and death of his younger sister, and in spite of a great desire to return to the west, he remained with his bereaved parents.
Again he went into the newspaper business. A stock company was organized of which he was the principal stockholder, and became the editor and publisher of the Potter Enterprise. He was a heavy loser in the fore of 1880, his office and all of his equipment being destroyed. Two hours after the fire was under control, he was at work in the Journal office, and in the morning an extra edition was ready for distribution. In 1886 he sold out his business and opened a jewelry store. Later he retired from that and took up optical work and in that he continued until his death.
In 1882 he married Eva D., the daughter of Mrs. Vesta C. Dyke, his former partner, and to them one child, Vesta Ellen was born. His wife, the daughter, Mrs. D. G. VanDeBoe, of Camp Hill, PA and three grandchildren, Gretchen, Evelyn Dyke, and Wilhelmina, survive him.
Mr. Thompson was an ardent Mason. Was the first secretary of the Coudersport consistory and held the office for fourteen years. In 1921 was made alife member of the Coudersport bodies, A. A. S. R. He was a charter member of the Fire Department, and of the Potter County Historical Society. He was a loyal Democrat, and except in local matters always voted a straight ticket.
In the last ten years Mr. Thompson has done considerable writing and has collected valuable historical data. His efforts to collect material in connection with the Norwegian settlement of Ole Bull have been tireless. Also he has collected valuable data and personal experience of old settlers in connection with the Passenger Pigeon. From his own experience he wrote many stories of local history and always in connection with this work, he aimed to be absolutely correct. He was an extensive reader and had a wonderful memory and so had a wealth of material to draw on.
ZENAS J. THOMPSON died at the home of his son, W. W. Thompson Thursday morning, January 8, 1902. Had been a resident of Coudersport since 1857 and was 82 years old. Is survived by one son, two brothers, M. S. Thompson of this Boro, Monroe Thompson of Madison County, NY, and one sister, Miss Elmira Thompson of Chenango County, NY.
