Esta, Many thanks. You could be on to something because I've just noticed that my dads name is James Haworth Hampson, and on your search it says James H Hampson so could be H for Haworth and also my g/father was a George Hampson and on your search the head of the house is called George so he could be named after his g/father (if you follow)? However, this still doesn't help me finding the maiden name of my g/grandmother or does it? Vanessa

Helen, Sorry one more question if that's ok. Why can't I view the full record all I get is the record card? And on the marriages registered it doesn't say who he married. Thanks Vanessa

Esta, re your note below, I am 99% sure that's the one. Ive just looked and also listed is another son called Frederick and on the 1901 census my g/grandfather is listed with my g/father and one other member his brother and although its quite hard to read I think its Frederick. And also his fathers occupation looks like Chemical ??? well g/grandfather was an Dye/ink Merchant so that would fit wouldn't it? I wonder how I can find out any info on the business, off another trial. Thank you so much for all your help. Vanessa
