Temperance DUMAS was married 3 times, and this is where things start getting interesting...

m/1 bef 1743 Robert YANCEY. He d bet 1743 and 1746 in Louisa Co, Va. I have not followed up on this to see what children they had if any.
m/2 Samuel Thomson, above, no issue.
m/3 aft 1753 Pewid HIX/HICKS.

Their children:

David HICKS
Unity Yancey HICKS Thomasson, wife of William Thomasson.

If you are trying to follow this puzzle...

Temperance DUMAS was the m-i-l of William Thomasson. She was also the 3rd wife of Samuel Thomson [about 21 yrs older than she] and was therefore the step-grandmother of her s-i-l William Thomasson.

This is pretty much all I know on the Thomasson family and I have not personally verified all of the information above.
