Uldrick Thompson
He was orphaned at the age of 4; his maternal uncle and his wife took him in as one of their own according to the wishes of Thompson's mother. They farmed halfway between Glens Falls and Saratoga Springs in New York.
Thompson was encouraged to become a professional teacher; he was recommended to teach in Hawaiʻi. Thompson (1849-1942) was a teacher at Kamehameha School for Boys (1889-1898 and 1901-1922) and served as the school principal (1898-1901.)
