232Th --> 228Ra + 4He

228Ra --> 228Ac + e-

228Ac --> 228Th + e-

228Th --> 224Ra + 4He

224Ra --> 220Rn + 4He

220Rn --> 216Po + 4He

216Po --> 212Pb + 4He

212Pb --> 212Bi + e-

212Bi --> 208Tl + 4He, 212Po + e-

208Tl --> 208Pb + e-

212Po --> 208Pb + 4He

208Pb, stable

If for you electron is "negatron" the thorium isotopes from 233 to 238 have a beta decay to protactinium-233. For other isotopes beta decay is rare and without significance.
