John Cumpson was an infant when his family emigrated from Ireland to Canada. (He later sometimes answered in censuses that he was born in Scotland, which may have been his ancestry.)
He was married to Rosanna in Canada in 1851. Five of their children were born in Niagara, Ontario, Canada. The family came to the United States in about 1861 and settled in Buffalo, where John and Rosanna stayed for the rest of their lives. Four additional children were born in Buffalo.
John worked as a blacksmith.
The children of Rosanna and John include Rosanna (Annie), coffee merchant Thomas Cumpson, Mary E. Cumpson, Matilda (Tilly) Cumpson, Louisa Cumpson, Alice Cumpson Escher, silent film actor John R. Cumpson, Bella Cumpson, and James Cumpson.
