CRUMPLIN of Portsea and Portsmouth

[antamls]

Hello - first time poster - hope this is in the correct place.

I have been researching my grandmothers family name - CRUMPLIN.  The family are from Hartley Wintney and surrounding villages in Hampshire and so far I have linked about half the CRUMPLINs who appear in the FreeBMD registrations.  I have noticed another group of about 50 CRUMPLINS registered in the Portsea/Portsmouth area between 1837 and 1901.  There is a good chance that the Portsea CRUMPLINs are linked to the Hartley Wintney CRUMPLINs as it is a fairly uncommon name.  The link is going to be before 1837.
Anybody interested in the same name or point me towards the missing link?
Thanks in anticipation

Not sure how you plan to link them without tracing specific persons

Between 1752 and 1812 there are baptisms for 41 CRUMPLIN listed  in Hampshire and between 1813 and 1841 there are 45 , in addition there are variations
CRUMPLIN / CRAMPLIN / CROMPELIN /COMPLING / CRUMBLEN

Hello antamls/Tonyamls - my first post with this site as well.

A very interesting project. However, did you know a Crumplin was one of the many crew lost on Titanic. My area of research does focus on the Titanic Relief Fund Southampton Committee.

At the moment I am trying to work this particular Crumplin as all signs are showing he was in charge/landlord of a pub in Portsmouth. Which one remains unknown as I have to call at Portsmouth records once again, when time the prevails.

Hope this one helps your cause?

Thanks for the reply - You have prompted me to look at my HGS discs again.  I found about 140 CRUMPLINs (and various spellings) 1752 - 1841 and have accounted for about 115 of them.  The outstanding ones that  I am intested in are:

William and Ann CRUMPLIN of Southwick, Hampshire who had children John (1816), Mary (1819), Elizabeth (1822) and Harriot (1824)
and
Thomas and Elizabeth CRUMPLIN of Portsea St Mary who had children William (1813), Thomas (1815) and John Charles (1821)
and
Henry CRUMPLIN and Kezia nee Merrett of Portsea St Mary who had children Henry (1813), Mary (1814) and Elizabeth (1817)

These are the first CRUMPLINs in Portsea area so I am thinking perhaps three brothers who moved to the area, married and had families.  Now working on that theory.

Hello Andrew

Thanks for the reply - Yes I had seen a Charles George CRUMPLIN b.1877 had died on the Titanic on several websites.  I think his parents were John Henry CRUMPLIN and Elizabeth CHANDLER.  John Henry's mother was Ann but I am not sure if the grandfather was John or Jonas and am stuck on this at the moment.
If I find the public house I will let you know.  Charles is described as a cabin steward on some sites and on one a victualler steward so that may link to previous experience in the pub trade.

Further to my last - 1901 Census shows Charles CRUMPLIN aged 24 years as the publican of the Eastney Arms Public House, (42) Cromwell Road, Portsmouth, Hampshire.  Living at the premises are wife Ada aged 24 years and daughter Frances aged 1 year.  Also at the premises are servants Cassie Taylor aged 15 years and George (groom aged 43 years) and Amelia (cook aged 49 years) HERMANETT. 
Hope that saves you a trip.

I am researching Hartley Wintney Crumplins, my grandparents.  You might try Thomas, 1796, married Ann Lovelock 1819
He married twice (Mary Ann Sutton) and had several sons, one, William, my great grandfather.
I lived in Portsmouth but never encountered  any Crumplins;  any possible link must have been truly lost by then.
