Abraham (James?) Crompton: An Overview

The above information was supplied to me by Judy Bradwell and is taken from some family trees and notes.  The notes read as follows:

In the early part of the reign of James I, nearly half the population of the hamlet of Breightmet, near Bolton, Lancashire, seem to have been Cromptons.  Among them was Abraham Crompton (also referred to as James).  His eldest son, Henry Crompton, married 10 January 1638 Rebecca Crompton (batized 1620) daughter of John and grandaughter of Elys Crompton of the Driffield branch.
