Hello everyone,
I'm new to this listing and I am currently looking for connections to my
CAMPLIN/CAMPLING family.
Matthew Campling born circa 1832, Driby, Lincolnshire Married Mahala West 1853 near Leake,
Lincolnshire.
Matthew's father was called Joseph and his three known children were called Martha,
Adelaide/Adeline and Joseph.
By 1881 Matthew was a widower and living in Kirk Smeaton, Yorkshire with his daughter
Adelaide as housekeeper and some lodgers. He was an agricultural labourer, but listed as
head of the household.
Matthew's son Joseph was lodging in Doncaster, South Yorkshire by the 1881 census and
had obtained work on the new railway plant works. He stayed in Doncaster and died there
in 1939.
If you have any connections to this family please let me know.
By the way, is there also a CAMPLIN list or are they classed as interchangeable names and
just this list?
Thanks for reading
Sue Parrish
