CUMPSTONE entry in New Zealand newspaper

Posted on March 30, 2012 by

There is a quaint story told in the Waikato Times 23 March 1886 about Mr Cumpstone making a valuable find of a seam of gravel.

Can anyone identify him from these few facts?  Could he be George – see my website at  http://www.cumpston.org.uk/#/george-compston-waihi/4538630658

Or could he be from this family?
