Thank you so much, Pat! This is the first solid lead I've had on this family for years. I'm sure this is the family I'm looking for. I know where the Hamptons were in 1880....they were in Jefferson Co. IA. Fred (who is called Edward on 1880 census) was last mentioned as a one-yr. old. His father, Levi, died a couple yrs. later and I've found no further reference to him or his mother, Clara. I still don't know what happened to her, but at least I have a bit more info to work with.
I would like to know if there's any record of a divorce or separation of some kind with Fred and Mary Hampton as I don't see them on later censuses. I'm not certain Fred actually went into the Army...only that he registered for the draft in WW I.
Thanks once more for your answer...I DO appreciate it.
