His death
The letter of Thomas C. WILSON, grandchild of Thomas CROMPTON, born 1803, to Mary Agnes TIBBITS, nee CROMPTON, dated North Dalton 23 February 1912 'Edmond [sic] who died early and has three daughters and he died in Nafferton and is buried there he would die about 1848 or so.' However Edmund died in the second quarter of 1855 (GRO ref: Driffield 9d 157) . The three(?) children were by Betsy Ann KINGSTON's second marriage.
Betsy Ann CROMPTON as a widow
Ancestry's 1861 Flamborough transcription joins Schedules 125 and 126, even though they are two separate farms on the census page. Hannah CROMPTON, the widow of Richardson CROMPTON, born 1815, lived next door to her sister-in-law Besty Ann CROMPTON. The Enumerator struck through his first attempt to record their relationship. It seems that, at the Farm House, Richard KINGSTON should have been recorded as Head and Betsy Ann as his sister.

| The Enumerator walked from the south of Eastgate to the north. This suggests that the Browne's
lived in the modern Eastgate South. Here there are examples of original housing, but there is modern
infill.
