Can anyone give me any information about James Hampton b abt 1786 and his wife Christianna b abt 1786 as this is as far back in my family tree that i can seem to get.I know that he was a nailer from Littledean i think but i know absolutely nothing about her or her parents etc.I know James and Christianna had at least five children John b abt 1812,Mary b abt 1814,Thomas b abt 1816,William b abt 1818 and Elizabeth b abt 1820.

I've found a possible on this side of the river:
