Personal history
Born on a plantation, Thaddeus was used to being preyed on. He would be forced to watch others get beat and killed violently and couldn't say a word. When he first found he had powers he was to scared to tell anyone. He thought he had done something wrong and he would get in trouble, or get someone else in trouble. He thought the best way to keep everyone safe was to not do anything.
Over the years he realized he wasn't aging normally, everyone else were still adults and he still looked like a kid. He thought he did something wrong when the plantation owners took him away. He was shown off like a circus act, the grown up kid. People assumed it was a birth defect and it was better that they did. He didn't have to work in the heat though and at least that was something.
Years passed and everyone he played with as kids were now in old age and he now looked in his mid teens. He finally revealed his powers to them and his fears of reprisal for showing them. They were angry at first, but they assured him they'd be fine, but he had to get their kids away from there. He escaped with the kids one by one and took them to the north. When he returned to them let know they were safe, all of his old friends had been hanged.
He knew he couldn't hide his powers anymore and flew all across the south so everyone could see. The called him the Negro from Neptune and he helped his people anytime he could, and even tried to join the Power Parliament but was rejected because he "wasn't the best America had to offer." He helped in the war anyway, and after that disappeared until he came back to join the Dream Team.

Employment
To hide in plain sight, Thaddeus approached the Lemardene's, one of the families that helped people along the underground railroad. He offered their family a bright future if they helped hide him. They pretended to be his employer and he their butler, when in fact the roles were reversed. He used the benefits they had to attend schools, learn trades and how to run a business. Over the years he grew increasingly wealthy, and allowed the family to stay in his mansion as long they played their roles, which they did.
He payed for schooling, lavish trips and whatever else was needed to keep up appearances. Sometimes using them as a cover to investigate others.
