I believe that Thomas is probably the Thomas in "Virginia Biographical Encyclopedia." David Jameson...born August 19, 1752, in Culpeper county (then Orange), son of Captain Thomas Jameson; served in the revolution, fought at Great Bridge, Norfolk county, December 9, 1775, and was in Stevens' brigade in 1780 and 1781. In 1790-91 he was a member of the Virginia legislature, and afterwards magistrate and high sheriff of Culpeper county. He married, in 1792, Mary Mennis, daughter of Charles Mennis. He died October 2, 1839. He was a brother of Lieut.-Col. John Jameson (q. v.).
