My mother has a match, a 2nd cousin once removed, who is descended from only one of my mother's great-grandparents (Hampton). This 2nd cousin once removed has a match with Hampton ancestry, whose ancestors lived in the same county as our Hampton ancestors. Mother and her 2nd cousin once removed have an unknown 3 great-grandfather. The match can go a lot further back with her Hampton line.
This match shares very many Finnish (and people from a few other Scandinavian countries) on their shared segments of DNA on chromosome 3.

The segments are large enough to be meaningful. This looks like it was one long segment.
Do we have Finnish ancestry???
The match is a descendant of David Hampton, b. around 1750, d. 1819) and Sarah Wilson. Wilson could be a Scandinavian name, but could it be Finnish?
This match that my 2nd cousin has does not match my mother, However, she does match my mother's 1st cousin, sharing 13.85 on a different chromosome. Mom's nephew also has this segment. So another question is, how likely is it that David Hampton was either Mom's 3rd or 4th great-grandfather?
