I am also descended from Lt. John and Mary Tarpley Camp.
I had a computer crash a few years ago. There was a
descendant of W.W. Camp of Jonesboro who had a letter
Stating that John Camp was buried in Georgia instead
of SC as is widely believed. I've been to the church
at Lebanon, near Princeton, SC and I just don't think
that John is there. I've walked thru the old cemetery
and "feel" that Mary is there, but not John. Does anyone
have a copy of that letter?
The fact that John and Mary were charter members of this
Church is very significant since it was one of the first
Methodist Churches in South Carolina. In fact, Frances
Asbury refers to the church (then called "The Grove" in
his diary. As a United Methodist, this is pretty cool.

How is John Walton a Camp. Did you know you might be a Camp if you are
related to Jeff Foxworthy. I wonder when he bought the land in Pine Mt Ga
from the Callaway Garden folks, he was buying it from a cousin kinda. My
dad's first cousin Beth Walton grew up with and married Bo Callaway. From
what I am told Jeff and my line come from Lt John Camp and Mary Tarpley.
Lt John Camp
Wm "Snipes" Camp
Littleberry Camp
Major TB Camp
Ophelia Camp m Ben T Perry ( dad and Beth Callaway grandmom)
I wonder if Beth Walton Callaway and John Walton are double cousins if he is
a Camp that is.
Barbara thanks for the website.
