My granddaughter is a Clampitt, both of her parents are deceased. She does have a Clampitt aunt and grandmother still living. I haven't done a lot of research on the family name, but did meet a Clampitt cousin of my granddaughter's deceased grandfather, James Lee Clampitt, (1924) and he and his wife, Clarine, (1931) are delightful, and we immediately took to each other. Below is all I have with the exception of a few notes about the itinerant Methodist preacher by the name of Lorenzo Dow. Apparently the Preacher Dow impressed the ladies of the church meetings, it is assumed that many children were named after this fiery man, and two are in the Clampitt family of which I write. Much of the information on the Clampitt family has been shared with me by James Lee and Clarine Clampitt.
Please excuse my messy typing, I guess it was from watching too much Super Bowl" today. If anyone can fill in any of my dates, or blanks or are related to this family, I'd love to hear from you.
