The first English record of a patent to any by the surname of Camp
or Kemp was in 1055 when Edward III, King of England, granted the right
to come to England, to John Kempe, of Flanders, and his patent stated he
was to have the right as a capitalist in the weaving business...He was
of the German or Belgium Flemish family, and coming into England fetched
with him a large coompany of weavers and up to this day, this family of
Kemp or Camp as it is variously spelled still engages in the weaving
business. It is thought that the American family of Camp or Kempe is
descended from this John Kempe although it has never been proven.
I am in possession of a description of the only existing English
landmark that might interest CAMP descendants by Tom Camp of Sharpsburg,
Georgia. I have not visited site which is officially called "ALL SAINTS
CHURCH NAZEING" located in an area(not a town or village) of about 25
square miles 20 miles north of London, 5 miles southwest of Harlow and
3 miles due east of Broxbourne. It sits on a high long hill overlooking
a patch work quilt of farm land.
