There is likely to be a connection with the Tompkins family I have in Marsh Gibbon which is just a few miles from Finmere. Can't be deifinate about this as all I have so far are three children born to William Tompkins, b 1801, M Gibbon and his wife Sarah Clements. These are, Edwin, b 1847, Ann b1849 and Ellen b1856.

Hi Jeremy !

I saw your post and that's why I put mine up - I hoped there might be a connection. 

As a matter of interest, one of the witnesses at Robert TOMPKINS' wedding was William Jakins TOMPKINS (who I suspect was his brother), quite an unual name, if you should ever come across it.

Happy hunting !!

Hello!

I saw your message, and tho I know you posted it long ago, I thought I'd respond because I do have a John Tompkins married to Elizabeth Freeman. The Freeman family are my direct ancestors, and came from Finmere. Perhaps this is the same couple you are looking for?
