turner photo Hampton's most noteworthy painter was Charles Henry Turner (1848 - 1908). Born in Newburyport in 1848, Turner grew up in Hampton, raised by his grandparents William and Theodate Goss at their home at the intersection of Lafayette Road and Watson's Lane.

Turner studied under Otto Grundmann at the Boston Museum School, starting in 1877. By 1881, Turner had become a painter by occupation. He studied in Europe in the 1880s, and later became a student of the White Mountain school of painting.
