Hi List,
What about "Temporarily Assigned" ?! I really don't have a clue, I 'm just
guessing at what T __ A __ might mean and trying to have it make sense
within the context of the census and an occupation of a Preacher.
Cheers,
Connie

I have just found a George R. Camp in Company D (Ripon) whom was a Corporal in Wisconsin Infantry. I don't know if this name is in anyone history.
Does anyone know of any great websites for the Spanish American War. I am looking for information on my Great grandfather William P. Camp whom we think was in this war. We are trying to get him a goverment marker for his gravesite.
In the 1850 U. S. Census for Paulding Co., GA (M432, Reel 80, Page 88A,
Line 29) they have enumerated Hosia Camp with his wife Elizabeth. Hosia's
occupation is listed as: T______ A______ Preacher. Has anyone been able to
decipher what the two words prior to preacher are?

Here is somthing I found some time ago on the CAMP/CAMPE family in VA records.
I don't know if I ever shared it with the list, but here 'tis.
Judy Canant
(I found this while searching for something else in the MATTHEWs family)
Gen of VA Families, Vol II, Mathews Family, p 644
There is a deed dated Sept 3, 1754, and recorded at a court held for King Geo
Co, Nov 7 1754 from Moseley BATTALEY of Spotsylvania Co, and Samuel BATTALEY
of the same county, eldest son and heir at law to the sd Moseley BATTALEY and
Elizabeth his late deceased wife, mother of said Samuel BATTALEY, of the one
part and John CAMP of King Geo County, gent, of the other part. The deed
recites that for 100 pounds current money of VA the said parties of the first
part release and forever quit claim to the party of the second part 2000
acres of in the parish of Brunswick Co of King George, formerly granted to
Lt Col Samuel MATHEWS, who by his will dated 16 Nov 1718, devised the said
land to his son Francis MATHEWS and such son, but if both should die in the
life time of his sons John and Baldwin MATHEWS that then the said tract
should be equally divided between said John and Baldwin, which said Baldwin
MATHEWS as the only surviving son of the last mentioned Saml MATHEWS, dec'd,
did sell the sd land to aforesaid John CAMPE. But whereas his right to sell
is like to be drawn in question, it appearing from the will of the said
Samuel MATHEWS that none of his sons had more than a life interest in said
land, and that Elizabeth BATTALEY, the late deceased wife of sd Moseley
BATTALEY, was the only surviving child and heir at law to the last mentioned
Saml MATTHEWS, who together with her husband Moseley BATTALEY was jointly
seized in part of the said tract of land, whereby the said Moseley BATTALEY
having issue, the said Saml BATTALEY and several other children by the sd
Elizabeth, hath a right to claim the said tract of land for his lifetime as
tenant the curtesie of England and that the said Samuel BATTALEY, as heir at
law to the said Elizbeth his mother, as also to his grandfather the last
mentioned Samuel MATHEWS, hath a Right of remainder in fee of and to the said
tract of land, Now, for preventing any suit either in law or equity, that may
hereagter be commenced between the said Moseley BATTALEY or Samuel BATTALEY,
their heirs &c, or the heirs &c of the said Samuel BATTALEY forever and the
heirs assign of the said John CAMP in regard to the said land, This Indenture
witnesseth that the said Moseley BATTALEY will warrant the said John CAMP the
said land &c.

Hi List,
I've just purchased _Gone to GA_ by William C. Steward off of eBay.
This will probably open up a whole new can of worms, but I thought
those of you with Georgia connections might be interested in what
is in the book. The subtitle to this book is "Jackson and Gwinnett
Counties and their Neighbors in the Western Migration". I have been
to Jackson County to research and got pretty confused with the sheer
numbers of land records involving CAMPs, particularly Hosea. Also,
since the county boundaries shifted there is some duplication. I
will attempt to type this verbatim, so if something doesn't agree
with what you have, let's DISCUSS it. I am very anxious to find more
information regarding John Camp, married to Mary (supposedly) Tarpley
and their son James. Here goes:
"559. Nathan Camp 000001_10001_4
Thomas Camp Sr. was born in Virginia c1717, married Winifred Starling,
was a Revolutionary soldier, and died in North Carolina 1798: he had son
John, also a Revolutionary veteran, born in Brunswick County, Va., married
Mary
Tarpley, and died in Jackson County, Ga., 1818; and son Thomas Jr., married
Susannah Wagner, was a Revolutionary soldier, died in South Carolina. Thomas
Jr., had a daughter Elizabeth who married Joseph Camp (1779-1854) in 1799.
Joseph was son of still another Revolutionary soldier, Benjamin Camp, born
1757 in Virginia, married 1776 Elizabeth Dykes, and died in Jackson County,
Ga., 1832. (Georgia Roster, p.46) Benjamin and Nathan Camp were enumerated
1790 in Laurens district, S.C., where the Rev. Hosea Camp was born 1774.
William Camp of Jackson County sold Jan. 3, 1801 to Philip Awtrey of
South Carolina, land on the Middle Fork of Oconee River. A deed from
John Shields to John Evans Oct. 12, 1801, noted that Shields' land adjoined
that of Nathan Camp on the Big Pond Fork of Oconee. Hosea came to Georgia
as a youth and settled on the Mulberry Fork. He bought land of Drury
Strickland later, in 1807. In 1803, Thomas, Benjamin and John Camp had
land together in Capt. Joseph McConnell's Mulberry Fork district, Hosea's
land at that time adjoining Spruce's in Capt. Alexander Reed's company. In
1804, Hosea's
Mulberry land was in Capt. Key's district. Thomas obtained headright land
in 1804. In the 1805 lottery, Burwell, Joseph, Abner, Sterling, John, Thomas,
Sherwood, Andrew, Hosea, Hosea Jr., Benjamin, Benjamin Jr., Thomas and Nathan
were listed. Abner, Hosea Sr., Benjamin Jr. and Sherwood were in Cochran's
district in the 1807 lottery. Benjamin married Rachel Hogg. In 1820,
besides Nathan above, these member of the family were enumerated in Jackson
County: Hosea (No. 641); Hosea (Sr). (No.656): Mary (No. 724; William
(No. 910); and Aramis Camp (No. 1010) In Gwinnett County 1820 were Abner
(No. 615), Andrew (No. 427), James (No. 447), John (No. 449), John Sr.
(No. 601), Robert B. (No. 417) and Solomon (No. 54); in Hall County, Abner
and Susannah: in Walton County, Burrell (who appears to have lined in Jasper
County in 1815 and Henry County in 1827), John, Joseph, Sherwood and
Thomas; in Clarke County, Edmund; and in Warren County, Gerrard, Samuel and
Shadrack. In 1820 James, a Revolutionary soldier in Gwinnett County, drew
Gwinnett and Early Counties land granted April 6, 1826 and Sept. 1, 1831.
The Rev. Hosea, a Methodist minister, moved to Gwinnett County shortly
after 1820 and lived there until his late years, when he moved to Polk
County, Ga.,. He had 12 children. Joseph, a Revolutionary soldier, was
living in Franklin County, Ga., in 1827, and drew Muscogee County land
granted Oct. 2, 1827."
I attempted to type this as written, with typos and punctuation errors and
all. There was no seperation of paragraphs.
Which brings the questions I have: Was the John Jr. my "Big-Headed"
John? Was the James enumerated in the Gwinnett 1820 census "my" James,
the son of John and Mary Tarpley Camp?
The Elias Camp of Larry's ancestry was in Polk County and according to his
obituary, the son of James Camp, a Revolutionary soldier. Elias was the
minister at Bethleham BAPTIST church at Fish Creek, Polk County (which land
for
the cemetery another of my lines donated). That Hosea would be a Methodist
minister would make sense, seeing that John and Mary Tarpley Camp, and I
believe Benjamin, helped found the first Methodist Church in S.C. (Lebanon).
I have seen a copy of Abner (later of Clayton County) Camp's will and know
that he owned slaves. John Wesley (who with his brother, Charles, began the
Methodist Church) and his American Bishops, Asbury and Coke, condemed
slavery. Is this what caused the seperation from Methodist to Baptist? Or
was it
just due to a change in geography?
Sorry for the ramblin', but my head is spinning. Any discussion?
Carole
I finally found who I think is my greatgrandfather George W. Camp (Kamp) in the 1850 Fed Census of Marshall Co, IN. It gives his age as one year (b. IN) which jives with all the info I have from family bibles. It lists him with Jonathan Camp, b. OH, age 25, farmer and Mary, b. PA. It also lists Joseph Camp, age 53, b. PA and Lydia Camp, age 47, b. NY.
I have info that he had a brother David, who later had children Marie, Ruby and Neal.
Name could be spelled Kamp also.
George W. married Sarah J. Truex.
Anybody connect with these people?
Thanks for reading this. Karen
