Now I have more time I can provide a brief summary of my interest in the Hampshire family name. My gggrandfather, Joseph, had business interests in Bermondsey, London. He married twice but, so far, I only have details of his second marriage to Diana Ann Couchman in 1825.
Joseph died c1835. His business must have centred on imports and exports to Brazil, because his son, Henry Joseph, moved to Liverpool soon after he married Sophia Jane Cole in 1841.
I believe Henry Joseph left Liverpool for Brazil,with his two sons, when his wife died in 1860. Two generations later the family returned to Liverpool.
I am particularly interested in all Hampshire's in London and the area. Pleased to hear from anyone with an interest because there are not many of us about.
