Birth*8 July 1797He was born Thomas Gillham Lofton on 8 July 1797 in South Carolina.1,2 
Marriage License6 March 1819A marriage license was issued to Thomas G. Lofton and Betsey Heaton in Madison County, Illinois, on 6 March 1819. Her surname was spelled "Hayton" on the marriage license.3 
Marriage*11 March 1819He married first Betsey Heaton, daughter of James Heaton and Barbara Kinder, on 11 March 1819 in Madison County, Illinois.4,5 
(Administrator) Administration20 December 1831Thomas G. Lofton and William Gillham were appointed administrators of the estate of their mother-in-law, Barbara (Kinder) Heaton Laughlin, deceased, on 20 December 1831 in Madison County. They made their sworn statement to the probate court that, in their opinion, the total value of the personal estate of which Barbara died possessed would not exceed $800 and John Gillham, Jacob Kensler and Ephraim Davidson were appointed by the judge to appraise the estate of the deceased. John Gilliam was a brother-in-law of two of Barbara's daughters, Rebecca (Hayden) Gillham and Barbara (Heaton) Gillham, Jacob Kensler was the father-in-law of Barbara's son, John Heaton, and Ephraim Davidson was the future father-in-law of Barbara's son, James Laughlin. A third son-in-law, Isaac Gillham Jr., joined Thomas G. Lofton and William Gillham in posting a bond of $1,600 with the probate court.6,7,8,9 
(Administrator) Inventory10 January 1832John Gillham, Jacob Kensler and Ephraim Davidson, acting as the probate court appointed appraisers of the estate of Barbara Laughlin, deceased, submitted their certified inventory list with appraised value of $560.75 to the probate court in Madison County on 10 January 1832. After items were sold and adjustments were made by her administrators, Thomas G. Lofton and Isaac Gillham Jr., the value of her estate had increased to $747.98½ and was submitted to the court on 4 April 1832 and filed by the court on 7 April 1832. Barbara's inventory analysis was confusing, both then and now, because the probates of Valentine Kinder and Alexander Laughlin, her father and husband, respectively, were at times being probated simultaneously with Barbara's. Her father's case had some legal issues which dragged things out. The paperwork of the three probates overlapped at times, and some documents were interchanged and misfiled by the court. Additionally, two probate packets were found for Barbara, causing her to be indexed twice. We found one folder with her surname spelled correctly and the other with it spelled "Langhlin."10,11 
(Purchaser) Estate Sale11 January 1832Thomas was among the purchasers of items from the sale of the estate of his mother-in-law, Barbara Laughlin, deceased, lately of Madison County, Illinois, his name appearing several times on the Bill of Sale list dated 11 January 1832. Almost all of the purchasers were members of her immediate and extended family. Those on the list of the most interest to us for the purpose of this project were John Heaton, Valentine Heaton, Thomas G. Lofton, Isaac Gillham Jr., Fielding Jefferson Lewis, Gallatin Kinder, Samuel Kinder, Hiram Arthur, Thomas Gillham, Jacob Kensler, Isaac Braden, Ephraim Davidson and Margaret Letitia Davidson.11 
(Purchaser) Estate SaleAugust 1832Thomas was among those relatives, friends and neighbors who purchased items from the estate of Jacob Kensler of Madison County, Illinois, in August 1832. The list of purchasers included the names of Jacob's widow, Mary Kensler, their son Jacob Kensler, the administrator of the estate, Thomas Gillham, the fourth party to the probate bond, James Botkin, Jacob's son-in-law, John Heaton, his brother, Valentine Heaton, Thomas G. Lofton, Ephraim Davidson and Hiram Arthur.12 
(Husband) Estate Distribution6 April 1833Thomas's wife was a daughter, and one of several heirs, of Barbara Laughlin, deceased, and Thomas received $40.50, the remainder of his wife's heir's share, on 6 April 1833 from the administrators of his mother-in-law's estate. The shares of the two older sons, John and Valentine Heaton, were paid by the estate administrators directly to them, the shares of the four married daughters were paid to each of their husbands, and the shares of the two minor children were paid to their half-brother, Valentine Heaton, as their guardian. On 13 February 1846 Rebecca Gillham, daughter of the deceased, provided a written statement to the probate court stating that she was one of the several heirs of Barbara Laughlin and that, to her knowledge, the several heirs of said deceased received of the administrators of her estate the sum of $105.50 each, by themselves or through their guardians.13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 
Marriage*26 June 1836He married second Ruth Smith on 26 June 1836 in Madison County, Illinois.21 
(Husband) Deathbefore 11 March 1845Thomas became a widower for the second time when Ruth (Smith) Lofton died before 11 March 1845.22 
Marriage*11 March 1845He married third, as her second husband, Nancy (Valentine) Meldrum on 11 March 1845 in Greene County, Illinois.22,23 
Census US 1850*1 November 1850Nancy and Thomas G. Lofton were enumerated on the 1850 census taken on 1 November 1850 in Macoupin County, Illinois. Thomas was 51 years of age and a farmer with real estate valued at $6,440, and Nancy was also 51 years of age. The couple lived with their blended and extended family in 1850. Thomas's son Thomas Jr. was 18 years old, Julia Meldrum, possibly Nancy's daughter, was 17 years old, two Harrington brothers, Thomas W. and Charles K., believed to have been recently orphaned, were 13 and 8, respectively, and Thomas and Nancy's daughters, Ethalinda, Matilda and Josephine, were 4, 2 and 6 months, respectively. All of the children, with the exception of Matilda and Josephine, had attended school within the year. We'll learn later that Julia Meldrum will marry Thomas Jr. first and, after his death, marry Charles Harrington.2 
(Husband) Death6 October 1855Thomas became a widower for the third time when Nancy (Valentine) Meldrum Lofton died on 6 October 1855 at age 43.23 
Marriage*15 April 1856He married fourth Eliza S.L. Smith on 15 April 1856 in Madison County, Illinois.24,25,26 
Census US 1860*18 June 1860Eliza and Thomas G. Lofton were enumerated on the 1860 census taken on 18 June 1860 in Township 10, Range 7, Macoupin County, Illinois. Thomas's age was recorded as 52, although he was actually 62, and his occupation was Methodist Minister. He had real estate valued at $4,000 and a personal estate valued at $6,000. His new wife of 4 years, Eliza, was 52 years of age. Thomas's daughters Matilda and Josephine, ages 12 and 10 respectively, lived in the household as did Mary J. Hunt who was 20 years old and had been born in England, and was likely a household servant.27
