Widow of Veteran Faces Deportation

BOSTON, June 29—Mrs. Harriet A. Thompson 71, British-born widow of an American soldier who has lived In the vicinity of Boston for over 50 years, was bewildered today by Federal orders to leave the United States or be deported.

Mrs. Thompson said she knew of no reason for the action. She said, however, she believed it may have resulted from the "antagonism" of an estranged daughter whose child, now 17, Mrs. Thompson has reared under a custody agreement with the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.

A native of Kent, Mrs. Thompson came to this country when 24 years old. She married George E. Bezanson, an Everett grocer. They had two sons and a daughter.

In 1932 she Wed John Parker Thompson, with whom she lived In Winchester until his death Feb. 9, 1938. She said Thompson was an Army man wounded in service. She had been seeking a pension as his widow, but the process has been delayed because she lost his discharge certificate, she said.4


     From Charles Assadourian, "Harriet (Harriet Alice Simmons) basically raised my great aunt Bernice (Bernice Elizabeth Gray)".

He claimed they were both a baby that lived about three weeks. But, George B. has a marker in Burlington Cemetery showing his death in 1911. So, my assumption is that they were two different children, probably twins, one who died at 3 weeks (Benjamin) and one who lived 15 years (George B.) If so, it's sad that the twins lived less than a ccombined 16 years.1
