Solon Thompson, father of Walter and Henry, brought up his family in Londonderry. His father’s name was Samuel, and his grandfather also named Samuel lived in a house that stood over the old cellar nearly opposite John Ramdell’s house. He was probably the earliest permanent settler of Thompsonburg.
The old cellar on the Glebe side now owned by Collins Griswold was covered by a log house in which Artemus Pierce originally lived. He afterwards built a frame house near it and subsequently moved this down to the site now occupied by Mr. Griswold’s house. The old part was burned a few years ago. In this house Mrs. Emery Melendy, a daughter of Artemus Pierce and mother of E. W. and J. W. Melendy, was born. Artemus Pierce was born July 10, 1779, and his wife Hannah Goodrich Oct. 2, 1782. They had nine children. Two of the earliest of the settlers of this town bore the name of McMurphy and Montgomery. The former erected the first log house in town upon lands now owned and occupied by E. A. Brooks; the latter on the farm now owned and occupied by H. H. Collins. But little can now be learned of McMurphy; he began his work in 1769, but how long he remained or to whom his farm descended is not known. It came into the hands of Ebenezer Smith who in the course of time built a frame house in place of the log hut. This frame house stood on the present site of Mr. Brooks’ stable. There was a basement story in which the first school in town was kept.

Solon married Maria Lucy Churchill in 1829 in Vermont. Maria was born about 14 Mar 1807 in Vermont. She died on 4 Apr 1871 in Londonderry, Windham, Vermont. She was buried in Rest Haven Cemetery, Londonderry, Windham, Vermont.
