DEATHS.
HAMPSON-At her residence, Isaac-street, Toowoomba, Harriet, relict of the late Alfred Hampson, aged 73 years 8 months.

The Brisbane Courier, Saturday 18 January 1930
THE LATE MRS. HAMPSON.
A very old resident of Toowoomba, Mrs. Harriet Hampson, passed tranquilly away at her residence, Isaac street, Toowoomba, last Sunday. The late Mrs. Hampson came with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Beer, to the little township, where her father erected the first tannery in 1860. In 1878 she married Mr. Alfred Hampson, of Warwick, and the young couple took up their abode in ïhat town. After 10 years the family returned to Toowoomba. The deceased lady was noted for her sympathetic disposition, and innumerable calls were made upon her in cases of sickness. She brought up a family of three sons and three daughters. The deceased lady was an extremely active member of the Raff-street Methodist Women's Church Help Society, the Women's Christian Temperance Union, and the Country Women's Association. The funeral service was conducted by the Rev. E. J. Taylor, minister of Raff-street Methodist Church, and by Sister New, chaplain of Lodge 33, L.O.L. Her husband predeceased her by five years. Besides her family, she is survived by one sister, Mrs. H. G. Wyeth and one brother, Mr. W. Beer, recently retired from the Education Department.

Hello everyone
I have a ARTHUR ALFRED HAMPSON in my tree who married a SARAH ELIZABETH SIMS in Queensland Australia in 1908.
I believe Alfred's father was ARTHUR HAMPSON
The Hampson and Sims family travelled to Australia together aboard the vessel " flying cloud " in 1863.

Can anyone help me to find the birth of Alfred Hampson please and is it possible to find his brothers and sisters through on line records ?
