Michael,
In the 1870 Census for Jackson Twp., Hancock County, Ohio, your Thomas is with L.K. Slife (probably his father although relationships are not given in 1870).This is what is given:
Slife, L. K., age 57, Male, White, Farmer, Born Maryland.It is indicated that his mother was foreign born (not his father, however).
Also in the household is Maria Slife, age 24, Female, White, born Ohio; Thomas Slife, age 13, Male, White, born Ohio. In the same household is Mary Orwick, age 56, Female, White, born Pennsylvania; Hannah Orwick, age 15, Female, White, born Ohio; and Catharine Orwick, age 19, Female, White, born Ohio.
Nearby is G.W. Slife, age 30, M, W, Farmer, Born OH; Malinda Slife, age 27, F, W, Born OH; John W. Slife, age 8, M, W, Born OH; Mary E. Slife, age 4, F, W, Born OH.
It would appear your Slife ancestors were from the East not the West.Perhaps some went West later.
It is possible that your Slifes are connected in some way to the ones that went from MD to Fairfield County, Ohio. Some of them also went, later, to Hancock, Putnam, and Auglaize Co.
