| Hepenstall Family | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Family originally came from the UK and 4 families of Hep's went to Ireland, location, Co. Wicklow. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (1) My Great Grandfather was James Hepenstall | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (2) My Grandfather was Benjamin Hepenstall | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| - - who had brothers named William, James, Percy, Norman. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| * Percy and Norman left Ireland and went to South Africa to work in the gold mines. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Percy went back to the UK by ship for a visit and never returned to his family in South Africa | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (The theory is that he fell overboard) but nothing concrete on this. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| * My Grandfather Benjamin went to New Zealand, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (3) My Father was James Heppenstall | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| (& I have 2 brothers Brian and Ian, between them they have 2 sons Andrew and James) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| So right now there are 4 male Hepenstall's in New Zealand keeping the 2 (L's) alive. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I married an American and am currently living in Florida. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I know that four generations back one our Hep's (being non-Catholic) married a Catholic and that's where someone was disinherited,4 generations back, thus the Dopping-Hepenstall's. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4 generations back, has Hepenstall spelt with 1 (L) whether is was a spelling mistake, or pronunciation, who knows, but I am sure there are ties somewhere. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
