Hi everyone, Whilst searching through my Hampson research I found some information which may be of use to others, so decided to post it to the List in case it supplies the answer you've been looking for. It will come in batches as I get it typed up.. it's all handwritten notes from over the years at the moment. <grin> If anyone else has similar information, whether small snippets or larger batches please do feel free to post it to the List... you may have the answer to someone else's mystery. :-) -- Cheers, Anne ICQ# 32010967 (nickie) mailto:Anne.Nichols@ukgateway.net Rootsweb ListOwner: Docwra, Dockery, Garton, Hampson and Schofield still hunting Nichols, Martin, Fletcher, Ford, Chandler

Family History The Smith's were proud of their family tradition. Their ancestors had come to America on the "Mayflower", and the family included senators and Wall Street wizards. The family decided to compile a family history, a legacy for their children and grandchildren. So, the family hired a fine author to put together all of their research notes. Only one problem arose. How to handle great Uncle George, who was executed in the electric chair? The author said not to worry for he could handle the story tactfully. So, the book appeared and it said: "Great Uncle George occupied a chair of applied electronics at an important government institution. He was attached to his position by the strongest of ties, and his death came as a great shock."

A family tree is worth bragging about only if it produces good timber and not just nuts.

Dear Ernie I am interested in all Hampsons whereever they are from, there are a number in Australia which is where I live. I am not Australian by birth, I was born within the sound of Bow bells. I do know of some Hampsons who came to Australia in the mid 19th century and one who was transported in the late 18th century. It is obvious that the original Hamspons came from north west England probably in the vicinity of Leigh. Any and all information will be gratefully received.

Dear Ralph - You do not give the country you are interested in but it sounds like England. My wife's family on her mother's side are Hampsons apparently all from Walsall, Staffordshire starting with George Hampson and Charlotte Pease or Peake and their eight children.
