Hampton Meat Processing is owned & operated by James & Connie McKinney. We bought the business in 1997 from Dave Hampton. He and his father and grandfather operated the slaughter house for many years in the Birchwood/ Georgetown area off of highway 58. In 1996 Dave moved the business to Decatur, TN.  In 1997 we bought the meat market from him and a few months later we became USDA inspected which allows us to sell meat.

Our farm is in the Birchwood/Georgetown area of Meigs County. We have two boys, Brandon 18, and Dillon 16. They both help at the meat market, especially during deer season.  James's parents are James (Jimmy) McKinney and Patsy (McDowell) McKinney and his sister is Angie (McKinney) Belcher, all from the Birchwood. Connie's parents are Nuel Nance, of Georgetown, and Lela (Cofer) Pike of Cleveland. She also has a brother Jeff Nance of Cleveland.
