Joseph m. a second time to a 'Mrs. Skewes.' He and his family immigrated to the U.S., ca., 1876. Ended up in Montana for a few years. Son Thomas Broad Champion married Mary Emma Foster of Yorkshire, England who immigrated in 1882. Thomas had Frank Dewey Champion, b. April 12, 1899 in Eureka, Juab Co. UT. Family mostly miners by profession in the early days. It is said that old John Champion of Redruth was a 'tin-mine agent.'
