Am interested in this chat. My name is Amy Esme Hampton Cantlay (now Kingdom), and my father is Vernon Joseph Hampton Cantlay.
He was born in Warmbaths, South Africa on 14 October 1946 and now lives and farms in Mkushi, Zambia. He would be very interested in the above information which I will print for him, and he may also be able to answer some of the questions raised as he has done quite a lot of his own research into our family history.
His father, Joseph Vernon Hampton Cantlay, married a widow by the name of Esme Mary Holcombe King (née Bluett) in South Africa. They had four children, Vernon, Douglas, Greer and Derrick. Derrick passed away at the age of 18 in a motorcycle accident. Vernon and Doug both live in Zambia and Greer lives near Pietermaritzburg, South Africa.
