I would love to hear from anyone with ties to the Northampton family of Thomas HEMMINGS (1816-1892) and Sarah MANNING (1820-1904). 

Thomas was the eldest son of John HEMMINGS (1792-1841) and Sarah TAYLOR (1794-1869) who ran The Boot Inn on College Street in Northampton for 30 years (see later thread on The Boot); and Sarah was the daughter of James MANNING (1787-1862) and Susanna MASON (1789-1859). 

Thomas & Sarah ran the Hemmings Bakers and Confectioners business (locations at 14 Regent Square, 28 Abington Street, and 7 George Row) that was founded in 1838 and was still operating in the late 1920s under the management of their children.  In particular, I would be very interested to make contact with descendants of Thomas & Sarah's children (there were 13!):

Susan Elizabeth Hemmings (1840-1871), m. Alfred WYATT;
Mary Ann Hemmings (1845-aft1924), m. HIGGINS;
William Thomas Hemmings (1849-1914), m. (i) Mary Elizabeth PEARSON,
                                                            (ii) Magdalena Elizabeth STEINBACH;
Sarah Louisa Hemmings (1851-aft1928), m. Alfred William WARREN;
Frances John Hemmings (1856-1888), m. Charlotte HOLLAND;
Clara Hemmings (1857-1941), m. James A. HORNBY;
Herbert Edward Hemmings (1859-1932), m. Clara Ann DANIEL;
Kate Emma Hemmings (1862-aft1928), m. John Helms PRUE;
Walter George Hemmings (1864-1947), m. Gwendoline Clara GOULD.

I have the family extensively researched and would be pleased to share information with other descendants and to learn more about the family in the hundred year Northampton period, 1830-1930.

Thanks, rthom
