Hi: My g-g-g- grandfather was Charles Hampson of Radcliffe. His daughter Ann was married to my g-g-grandfather John Collinge in 1821 at Manchester Cathedral. When I visited Radcliffe a couple of years back I visited St. Mary's C.of E, the parish church of Radcliffe. The grave yard was full of Hampsons. Apparently, the Hampsons were very influential in the community and in the church. Maybe some of your family might have been one of them. My Charles Hampson was born in 1772. I doubt that he was related to your Hampsons as I don't think my relatives were very prosperous. My Grandfather John Collinge and his wife Ann (nee Hampson) were buried in St. Thomas's cemetery, Radcliffe. Donna Collinge Martens, Muskegon, Michigan

ps I'm in Livonia, just across the State from you.

Donna did you get my e-mail telling you I found Anne Collinge and children in the 1841 census but not John? I have heard from two other Hampson lines this month, Richard Hampson and George Hampson. I've kept your info in my file, you never know. Val c. DJMFLAG@aol.com wrote: >Hi: My g-g-g- grandfather was Charles Hampson of Radcliffe.
