==Early family life==
James Christie left Dundee Scotland to work in the flax mills of Ireland. His two brothers, Alexander and William, emigrated in the 1840s to the United States where they worked as machinists. During the winter season they worked in Cuba, operating machines designed by Dudley Pray used in the sugar cane fields. In 1846, they sent for the James Christie family in Ireland and their extended family in Dundee. Eventually all settled near each other in Clyman Township, Dodge County, Wisconsin.()
Thomas's older brother, William Gilcrist Christie went to Minnesota. James sent Thomas there to help William with his farm.〔
