"I found this yesterday. My g-g grandfather's first wife's parents were Henry and Jane:
The secret affair of Henry Gore and Jane Thompson
Posted 02 Feb 2013
The story of Henry Gore and Jane Thompson is your typical tale of adultory with a twist.
Henry was born in about 1790 and married when he was 19 years old to lovely 17 year old Susannah Swinney. They began having children right away. By the time Susannah hit age 30 in 1820 there were 6 children in the Gore family.
All the while young Jane Thompson, who lost her mother at age 3 and was raised by a stepmother, had been growing up in the neighborhood too. In 1820 Jane Thompson was 21. It is not known exactly how Henry met the fetching young Jane and began having an affair but soon enough Jane Thompson had their first daughter Elizabeth in May of 1821. In the early 1800’s an affair with a birth could not have been an easy thing for two people to keep a secret. None the less they would keep at it that way for years to come.
When Henry and Susannah moved, Jane was separately brought along and established in her own home as Henry had the means to support both families. Over the years Henry purchased more than 1000 acres of land in Fayette County (now Raleigh), Summers Co., and Mercer Co.
Henry continued to have children with Susannah also. So Susannah was doing her duty as a good wife should. Susannah from 1820 to 1828 produced 7 more children, bringing another child into the world for Henry at the rate of nearly one every year. However, over the same time period Jane was giving birth at about half that rate. She would add another 4 to Henry's list of children. Each of Jane’s children carried her name, Thompson, and not the name of their father, Gore.
Finally in 1833 Susannah had had enough of Henry’s continuous adultery. She threw him out and they were separated but never divorced. Susannah had produced 13 children for Henry and she needed him to support them and her. That is what he did for the next 13 years. It came to an end on June 28, 1846 when betrayed Susannah died at the age of 56.
Four months later in October of 1846 Henry, with great celebration on his side of the mountain, joyfully took Jane Thompson to be his wife. Together they had given birth to 8 children over a 24 year history of the adulterous affair and were now able to make it legal. There were no more children born to this union. However there is a twist because even Jane Thompson, of course, was being cheated on by Henry Gore. This third woman’s name is Jenny (possibly, it is said, African American). She produced at least one child, Rachel Gore, on 3 Jan 1845. The timing of this child’s birth is during Henry’s separation from his wife Susannah and while he is living fully with Jane Thompson. The beautiful sweet Rachel Gore died on 20 Jan 1931.
In the 1850 census the youngest two Thompson children, now Gores, were still living at the Thompson Gore home. By the time the 1860 census was taken Henry and Jane were growing old together.
Henry died in 1868. Jane Thompson lived on in Raleigh County West Virginia for another 12 years as Henry’s widow until her death on October 16, 1880. She was not buried with Henry and neither was Jenny for that matter. A Gravestone was erected for Henry in the Brammer Cemetery at Odd, West Virginia, by a caring and no doubt loving, Thompson Granddaughter, Amanda Thompson, now known as Amanda Fink. His headstone can be found sitting conspicuously among all the Fink families."
