=== Early Station Masters at Hampton Loade===
The first description of ‘Station Master’ in GWR records is in 1897.
John Williams (booking constable, 1863) and Henry Powell (Booking Porter 1866-1887) may have supervised the station, the censuses of 1871 and 1881 describing the latter as Station Master.
