Richard Hampton was probably the youngest son of Capt John Hampton and Mary Mann. He was born in Kingston Parish, Gloucester Co., VA about 1688. He would have been a young boy when his father moved to King William Co., VA. Richard bought land from John Thomas in February 1738 and continued to live in Caroline Co, VA as an adult. He was a substantial citizen and performed the normal duties expected at the time. He served several times as a juryman and also was a road surveyor. He provided a bond for Joseph Neville to obtain a license to keep an ordinary and also to Hannah Harrison as the executrix of her husband's estate. Later, it is said, Richard settled in the Goose Creek area of Prince William County (later Fauquier Co., VA). he bought a 375 acre plantation there in December 1745 and sold his plantation in Caroline Co in 1746 to Francis James. Alice (the wife of Richard Hampton) acknowledged the deed. Richard married twice: 1) to Alice and 2) at the time of his death, he named Martha in his will which was recorded in Fauquier Co., VA Dec. 22, 1766. He had five children and named in his will: Elizabeth, Sarah, Martha, William and Richard. He left his home plantation to his wife Martha and legacies to his children.
