Hello,
Does anyone have any information about the HAMP families of Ware.
So far I have Joseph Hamp born c1806 who married Harriet/Harriot born c1809. They had a son called Francis, born c1837, who married Rachel Fry born c1837. They had a daughter, Fanny Ellen born 1863 in Bermondsey.
Joseph was born in Ware, so was Francis. Rachel Fry came from Hullavington in Wiltshire.
The earliest mention of Hamp in Herts was a John Hamp born c1743 in Tring. Is he perhaps related to Joseph Hamp??
Any help appreciated.

Harriett Hamp 34
Chas. 6 - Francis 4 - Edwd 2 - Joseph 4mths.

Hello,
My name is Kevin Hamp (Waterford, Michigan, USA), and my information trail ends with Benjamin Hamp, born in Kent, 1845. It says he was an orphan, but I noticed a Benjamin Hamp on this thread, possibly related to Joseph? My information says he emigrated to Toronto with his cousin, Benjamin Burnham, also an orphan.
If Benjamin Hamp was an orphan and I can't find any other leads, then I guess my search ends here. :(
I have a lot of family info on Benjamin's family if anyone should be interested. I guess that's as good a reason to leave this message as any.
