Hampton in Arden, Warwickshire
Could someone please enlighten me as to where Hampton in Arden, Warwickshire is located. My Great Great Grandfather Joseph Taylor was born there in 1825. He later married and resided in the Oldbury area where my Great Grandmother Ann Taylor was born in 1861. Is Hampton in Arden part of Birmingham?

Thanks Antie Em, researching from Australia I am fascinated by the informative and simplistic procedures used to give location names. The use of place names on rivers, seas or localities give a vivid description of there location.

Shakespeare set much of 'As You Like It' in the Forest of Arden.
Currently investigating the Hillmans of Sussex.
