Dear Roger & Joy
I'm so glad to here from some one on the
Genealogical Network. Maybe you can help me with something? But frist the Crest.A dear friend gave me a copy from a book about the Campion Crests. There is more than one crest.
I believe that there is about five of them.I will try to type the info.as printed. But if you would send me your address (please print)
Via,post,I'll be happy to send you a copy of
what I have( send to William A.Campion - 530 Bay Street - Berlin,Maryland 21811 ) For private correspondence use my E-Mail - campionsr@juno.com. So here go's. The book titled-Dictionnaire GENEALOGIQUE des Familles Canadiennes ,depuis la foundation de la colonie jusqu'a nos jours par L'abbe Cyprien Tanguay - Premier Volume Depuis 1608 jusqu'a 1700.(Complete in Itself). Baltimore Genealogical Publishing Company,1967. #1-CAMPION (Withham,co.Essex,and London). Ar.a Chev.betw.three talbots'heads,erased sa. Crest-Out of a ducal.coronet or ,a talbot's head sa. #2-CAMPION,or CAMPYON (London). Ar.on a chief gu. an eagle disp. or. Crest-A turkey in pride ppr.comb and wattle gu. #3-CAMPION (Danny co. Sussex, descended from Sir William Campion,of Colchester,knighted in 1618,who was son of William Campion,of Combwell,esq. and grandson of Henry Campion of London. The presrnt representative is William Campion,of Danny,esq. high sheriff of Sussex in 1820,great-grandson of Henry Campion,esq. and Barbara his wife,dau. and heir of Peter Courthope,of Danny,esq.) Same as the preceding. #4- CAMPION (London). Az. fretty of eight erm. on a canton or, a fleur-de-lis gu. That's all I have on the Campion Crests.
Now for me can you PLEASE help me find the town in the UK. or as we say England, That my Grate Grandfather came from and any thing you can on his wife. His name: James Greenslade Campion & Selina Eliza all dates unknown. James was born in England then he left UK.and went to St.Johns,Newfoundland.I have every thing but his place of birth and the info.on his wife. I believe there are two lines of Campion's in the UK.with the info.on James I hope to find my line. We could be related there's not a lot of Campion's in the world. James left the UK. sometime around the mid 1800. His frist child was born in St.Johns on Sept.2,1866.
He went to St.Johns to work for the Prouse
family as a stable hand worked ihs way up to the Gentlemans Gentleman,and had six children. The last two where born in Springfield,Massachusetts the last one was my father William Henry Campion,Oct.22,1910-Mar.28,1983.My Grandfather Kenneth Prouse Campion,Married Edith Amelia Simmonds of Camberwell,London. She was born on Jan.29,1867.They where married on Sept.29,1890 in Montreal,Canada. If we are related it will follow down from James Greenslade Campion's Father? I hope you can help me my Family line and it would be great
to find that we are Family.I read somewhere that there is a HOUSE of CAMPION in England.
If it should be in my line,It would be nice to see it someday.But time is moving a little too fast now that I'm 66 years old.
I would like to finish my Family line so I can leave it to my four children so they can tell there children from where they came.
So Good Luck! If we are related I'll be happy to send pic's. and other info.
HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU
Bill & Rosealee
