Charles Hampton Family 1898
Charles was the Postmaster in Longhope in the mid to late 1800's. His son,
George assumed these duties. It is believed the photo was taken in 1898 at the
funeral of Esther (Canning Grimes) Hampton. That would have been one of the
occasions that the family would have gathered, also Esther is not present.
The names and dates are courtesy of Ethel (Hampton-Harrison) Heafield, daughter of
Elsie (Hampton Harrison,) in the photo, and Granddaughter of Charles Hampton, also
in photo. This information was gathered May 28, 2008 at Ethel's home in Pinner,
outside of London. Ethel was 95, in good health and sharp as a tack. I sadly have to
report that Ethel died on Dec 28, 2014, we will miss her.
