Luther, I checked my copy of "A Survey of Brooks County Cemeteries" which was published by the Brooks County Museum and Cultural Center, Quitman, GA in 1999. This is what is shown for your Stephen Henry HAMPTON: Page 9: b. August 1835, d. May 3, 1919, h/o Eliz. J. CUMBEST, CSA Soldier 4th Corp. Co. E. 17th Regt. GA. He is buried at Old Bethel Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery which is located south of Highway 122, Old Tallokas District. I did not find a listing for Eliz. J. CUMBEST HAMPTON under CUMBEST or HAMPTON. I found in "Brooks County Georgia - Echoes of Its People" the following: Page 17 - INDIGENT SOLDIERS: PENSIONS HAMPTON, S. H. - Company C, 17th Georgia, 1861. Surrendered at Appomattox, April 1865. Infirmity and poverty. Approved for 1907. Page 19 - WITNESSES FOR SOLDIERS Hampton, S. H., Soldier - G. D. Dorough, M.D., Witness Page 23 - CONFEDERATE VETERANS AND WIDOWS ON the TAX DIGEST, Census of No. 450 (Living in GA), approved August 22, 1905: 39. Hampton, S. H., Company E, 17th Georgia Regiment, 1861, 1865 at Appomattox, Virginia, 1908 - 1919, Quitman, GA. Page 243: Newton R. Daniel HAMPTON (1870 - 1930) Biography "Newton R. Daniel "H" Hampton was born March 10, 1870 in Georgia. His parents were Stephen Henry Hampton and Elizabeth (maiden name unknown)..." Page 320: Henry Sapp (1828 - 1909) Biography "Henry returned to Brooks County after the war. He was a farmer and lived and reared a large family there. Children of Henry Sapp and Susan Miller Walden Sapp: 3. Marietta Sapp (b. June 22, 1868) married Stephen Henry (Richard) Hampton on December 23, 1885. 4. Virginia Palmer (June 27, 1871 - November 1835*) married Newton R. H. Hampton on November 20, 1888. He was the son of Stephen Henry and Elizabeth Hampton. She is buried at Bethel Primitive Baptist Church..." *1835 must be a mistake. I think it should be 1935. I checked for her burial at Bethel Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery, but could not find it.
