From New Bedford Streets: A Piece of Americana: Kempton Street

Kempton Street is one of the most trafficked streets in the city, and the Kempton family name is one of that goes back to the very origins of New Bedford and the arrival of the first Europeans in the New World.

The first mention of a Kempton in the historical record is from 1623. The names Manasses/Mannasseh and Ephraim Kempton (though other documents suggest he came later) are mentioned as arriving on the ship Anne, or possibly on the Little James. Both were born in Berwick-Upon-Tweed, Northumberland, England, of parents George Kempton and Mary Jersey.

p. 63: 'GEORGE KEMPTON, ... perhaps married second St Botolph Bishopgate, London 11 June 1589 MARY JERSEY, perhaps the Mary Jersey baptized Enfield, Middlesex 28 February 1573/4, ... perhaps daughter of JOHN and MARY (HODGE) JERSEY.'

p. 64: 'The parentage of Mary Jersey is not yet established. She may well have been connected to the family of Jersey of Enfield, Middlesex; the surname is quite rare. John and Mary (Hodge) Jersey of Enfield were parents of a daughter Mary baptized there 28 February 1573/4 (no parents' names on the parish register's entry of the baptism), but this child would have reached only the age of fifteen by June 1589.'
