I am descended from James & Mary Hampson (m. 1888), their daughter Minnie (1898-1957) emigrated to Australia in early 1924 and married a George Vaun from Essex, in Brisbane 1926. Minnie is my maternal grandmother. If I understand correctly, your Joseph is a younger brother to James. James Hampson was born 1863 in Stretford and his parents are William Hampson and Mary Kinsey. William Hampson was born in Stretford and Mary in Knutsford CHS. William's parents are Jonathan Hampson and Catherine (Brundrett) Hulme Hampson, William was from Catherine's second marriage. I have a little information on Mary Kinsey, if you are interested. Re - 1901 Census, James Derbyshire is Mary Hampson's younger brother. Mary was born in Sale CHS in 1868, I have her BC, and brother James was born in Ashton upon Mersey or Sale, CHS. If you are interested i am willing to share what I have found on the Hampson family. Hoping to hear from you again. Maxine Australia
