    • Who Was Thomas' Father?

      Thomas Maxey Hampton's parentage is pure speculation at this time and based on the following arguments:

      1) Thomas was born in Jackson Co., Georgia abt 1800.

      2) George, Joseph, Benjamin and John (all brothers) are on the Tax Index for Jackson Co., Georgia in 1799. They are the sons of William and Lydia Hampton. All of them lived in Abbeville, North Carolina for a while and William died there. George may have died there as well. John raised his family in Jackson Co., Georgia and the others may have lived there briefly as well.

      3) Thomas named his firstborn son George Claiborn Hampton... Claiborn was for Olive's father and George may have been for Thomas' father.

      4) On March 7, 1809, I found a George Hampton in Jackson Co., witnessing a will along with Job Rogers.

      5) On January 7, 1811, I found George Hampton in Jackson Co., giving an oath along with Job Rogers.
      NICHOLAS HOBSON, 3/7/1809:5/1/1809
      Wife: Sally. Sons: William, John, Matthew, Baker, Christopher, Francis, Allen. Daus: JimmySmith, Polly, Patsy, Agnes. Exrs:John, Matthaw and Baker Hobson. Wits: George Hampton, Job Rogers.

      Joseph Humphrey (1745-1811) who married Rebecca Phelps. They lived in Franklin County. His LWT was produced in the Jackson Court Ordinary by the oaths of Job Rogers and George Hampton on 7 January 1811.

      6) Found a marriage in Frederick Co., Virginia between a George Hampton and Winney Howell on Aug 5, 1787. The date would work for parents of Thomas. The problem is, on the same page I found a marriage for a Joseph Hampton to a Nancy Ann Tate in 1796. This Joseph married Ann Nancy Tate and is the son of George Hampton and Mary Colson who also had a son named George. This could be the George who married Winney Howell. This George and Joseph are only a couple years younger than our George and Joseph.

      GEORGE HAMPTON
      of Georgia

      John Hampton applied for revolutionary pension while living in Jackson
      County, Georgia. He entered the service in North Carolina in 1778 and
      participated in General John Ashe's Defeat at Briar Greek, Georgia. He served
      with General Thomas Sumter's forces in engagements at Ramsour's Mill, King's
      Mountain, Fishing Creek and Musgrove's Mill. Captain Wade Hampton, General
      Andrew Pickins, Colonel John Purvis and Captain Williams are mentioned in the
      application papers.

      Subject: Re: [GEORGIA-L] Georgia 1827 Land Lottery
      Date: Wed, 18 Feb 1998 14:13:36 EST
      Starting in 1805, Georgia dispensed lands acquired from the Indians to Georgia
      residents through lotteries. The statewide registration has survived for the
      1805 lottery but except for a few scattered county lists of registrants, only
      the names of the winners are known for the 1807, 1820, 1821, 1827, and 1832
      lotteries. Revolutionary War veterans only had to be Georgia residents at the
      time of the lotteries to qualify for their extra chances and they were not
      required to make any statement as to specifically where or when they served in
      the American Revolution.
      Most Georgians never saw the land lots that they won but sold their lots to
      land speculators who in turn sold the lots to families that migrated to
      Georgia from other states. This situation was particularly true for the 1832
      lotteries in northwest Georgia. Many Georgians did not claim the lots that
      they won because the lots were not considered worth even the fee to have them
      granted. Unclaimed lots reverted to the state of Georgia and were sold at
      auction, along with fractional lots which were withheld from the lottery
      because they were not the standard size. Lots won in the 1832 lotteries that
      were still occupied by the Indians were withheld until the indians were
      removed in 1838.
      The 1805 land lottery was for dispensing the 202 1/2 acre land lots in
      original Baldwin and Wilkinson counties and the 490 acre land lots in original
      Wayne County. Qualifications for this lottery included single males, heads of
      households, and orphans. A person had to be a resident of Georgia since May
      11, 1802 to qualify for chances in this lottery.
      The 1807 land lottery was for dispensing additional 202 1/2 acre lots in
      original Baldwin and Wilkinson counties. Qualifications for this lottery were
      the same as for the 1805 lottery except that single women and widows without
      children could participate. Registrants had to be residents of the state of
      Georgia since June 26, 1803 to qualify for the 1807 lottery.
      The 1820 land lottery was for dispensing the 490 acre lots in original
      Appling, Irwin, and Rabun counties and the 250 acre lots in original Early,
      Gwinnett, Habersham, Hall, Rabun, and Walton counties. Qualifications for
      this lottery were the same as for the 1805 lottery except extra chances were
      allowed to some veterans, widows, and orphans of the war of 1812. Registrants
      had to be residents of the state of Georgia since December 15, 1815.
      The 1821 land lottery was for dispensing the 202 1/2 acre lots in original
      Dooly, Fayette, Henry, Houston, and Monroe counties. Qualifications were the
      same as for the 1820 lottery. Registrants had to be residents of the state of
      Georgia since May 15, 1818.
      The 1827 land lottery was for dispensing the 202 1/2 acre lots of original
      Carroll (or the 5th section), Coweta (or the 4th section), Lee (or the 1st
      section), Muscogee (or the 2nd section) and Troup (or the 3rd section)
      counties. Qualifications were the same as for the 1820 lottery except that
      the physically and mentally handicapped were given extra chances and abandoned
      wives and
      children were treated the same as widows and orphans, respectively.
      Registrants for the 1827 land lottery had to be residents of the state of
      Georgia since January 1, 1824.
      The 1832 land lottery was for dispensing the land lots of 100 to 160 acres
      each in the four sections of original Cherokee County, what is today northwest
      Georgia.
