Hi Champions.
I read with great interest the postings from Champion descendants of
families that came to America and settled in NY/NJ/CT/VA.
My line came from Cornwall very late...compared to the dates many of you
have for your lines.
My second Great Grandfather Hugh Champion was born in Cornwall 07
September, 1883 and died in Central City, Colorado 01 January, 1886. His
father Hugh Richard Champion was born in Phillack, Cornwall, in 1814.
I am seeking information on Hugh's brother Thomas and his family. Thomas
also came to Central City from Cormwall. He died there on 08 July 1900.
What I do know:
Descendants of Thomas Champion and Bess "unknown"
1 Thomas Champion b: 1851 d: 08 Jul 1900 in Central City, CO
+Bess "Unknown" b: Unknown in ? d: Unknown in ?
2 Albert Champion b: Unknown in ? d: Unknown in ?
2 Emily Jane Champion b: 1872 in ? d: 1945 in Central City, CO
+Isaac B. Johns b: 1868 in ? d: 1902 in Central City, CO
2 Tom Champion b: Unknown in ? d: Unknown in ?
2 Richard Champion b: 1876 in ? d: 1945 in Central City, CO
+Edna "Unknown" b: Unknown in ? d: Unknown in ?
3 Dorothy Champion b: Unknown in ? d: Unknown in ?
3 Richard Champion b: Unknown in ? d: Unknown in ?
Any help would certainly appreciated. There is a Champion Gravestone in
Central City that I suspect was placed by someone in this line.
