I know nothing of your Eli, but have been told the name until the early 1900's was basically found only in Lancashire, England. -----Original Message----- From: RSTELF@cs.com [mailto:RSTELF@cs.com] Sent: Saturday, November 03, 2001 7:53 PM To: HAMPSON-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [HAMPSON] Hampson Civil War Vet Listers: I have a photo of Eli Hampson labeled Civil War Vet from Yonkers, NY, USA. He is noted as my grandmother's oldest brother, but he could have been her uncle since she was born after the Civil War. If anyone has any information on Eli or my grandmother, Laura Augusta Hampson (presumably from Tarrytown, NY), I'd appreciate hearing from you.
