Notes for Thomas Ice, Sr:
Information for this lineage is taken from Thomas's bible, now in the hands of his grandaughter's family, Dr. Sallie Ice Nebius, of Denver, Colorado. Therefore, the information is, without a doubt, accurate, and may be confirmed with the 1850 Marion County census of West Virginia, Page 212. Descendant's information past the original entries into Thomas's bible are from each of the families.

Originally living in Marion County not far from Farmington, Thomas and his wife bought one of the farms allowed to Abraham from Indian Billy's court case located on East Run, east of Mannington. Thomas sold the farm to sister Ruth, along with her husband, George Watson, in 1853. Barbour County's 1860 census shows Thomas, Sarah, Ruth, Thomas, Jr., John, and Levina, all living near Phillipi. George W Ice and his family is also listed, along with Daniel and Mary and their families.

Some of the early battles of the Civil War were fought close to Thomas's front door. Companies of soldiers of both sides were constantly passing by. They would leave worn horses, taking food and powder and fresh horses without so much as a by your leave. Thomas was eventually accused by the North of harboring rebels, and focibly taken on a march to Richmond, but the soldiers, assuming he was guilty, decided to forego the trial for a healthy hanging.
As the noose made it way to his neck, rebel soldiers came upon the scene and dispersed the yanks in short order. Unable to go home, Thomas hid in the wood not one-quarter mile from home. He spent the winter under an outcropping, his wife and Thomas, Jr. bringing food and clothes. Union soldiers, bent on finding him, tried to get Thomas, Jr. to divulge his wheraboutsby scarring his neck with repeated knife wounds, but to no avail. Thomas Sr. was never taken. Both bore the scars of the noose and knife. Moving further into the southern territory, near Hightown, Highland County, Va, they lived in peace throughout the remaining war years. Settling of a farm near Crab Bottom, their neighbors, a family named Folks, had a daughter Eliza, who eventually married Thomas, Jr. AFter the war Thomas Sr and family moved back to Barbour County in Barker Township, near Belington. The 1870 census lists Thomas's family along with son Daniel and his family. Rebecca, Thomas's sister, is also listed. Thomas bought a Grist Mill on Little Sandy Creek, near Eby. He sold it in 1886, moving to Kansas in 1890 to live with Thomas, Jr. on a farm in Douglas County. One blizzardy day, Thomas, Jr. found the minister on his horse, riding in circles between the farm and Topeka!
