I'm trying to verify information my grandmother had given me on her family
and to take it back farther. Here is where I need the advice... She
convereted to Mormonism about 15 years ago and submitted her ancesters.
Last week I went down to a Mormon Family History Center to research my
Campbells. Here is my delima...
IGI vs. Scotish Church Records?
My feeling was the Scotish church records but everyone helping me there
kept directing me to the IGI files on the computer... All the information
they have on the computer I already have because my grandmother submitted
it and that is the information I'm trying to verify. First of all is the
IGI a reliable source? Second, which one is more reliable? I think I found
Alexander Barnet CAMPBELL in the Scotish Church Records and on the IGI...
My problem is that the parents aren't the same and I'm trying to find out
who they were... I also found the interface of there computers quite
frustrating and limited. While the micro fiche seemed to have more
information.
If the micro fiche is more reliable then I will be looking into the surname
CRERAR... Any one familiar with it? I've never heard it before.
Comments or suggetions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jennifer

Hello, Campbells!
The first Campbell in our line is my g-g-g-grandmother, Flora MacDonald
Campbell, who was born around 1836 in New York City. She married William
Henry Chandler on Sept. 28, 1854. Their daughter, Susan Chandler
(@1857-1881), married Cornelius Huff. After W.H. Chandler's death, Flora
married James King. She died herself in NYC on July 9, 1888. She, Chandler,
King, Susan and Cornelius Huff are all buried at Cypress Hills Cemetery.
There is some confusion about Flora's father's name. On his death
certificate and on the Cypress Hills interment list, he is Coll Nicholas
Campbell. My dad thought the correct name was Colin Nicholas, but I will
stick, for now, to what's on the death certificate. Coll Nicholas was born
around 1806. His death certificate states that he was born in North
Carolina, but not where. It also states that his mother's family was
originally from New York and, at the time of his death, Coll had been living
in NYC for 30 years. Coll married Amelia Ann {maiden name unknown} {d.o.b.
circa 1810} probably around 1833. Amelia died on June 6, 1848. As far as we
know, Coll Nicholas never remarried. Both Amelia and Coll are buried at
Cypress Hills Cemetery.
My dad thinks that Coll had a brother Donald. Donald's wife was Margaret
Euphemia Campbell. In her will, Margaret {who died in 1858} leaves land in
Westchester to her "brother" (in-law?) Nicholas Campbell. She also mentions
a "sister" (in-law?) Rosetta Campell.
I hope someone out there is doing research on the same family and I look
forward to hearing from you.
Susan Huff
Does anyone know if Edward Lewis Campbell has a new e-mail address? My
mail is always returned. His e-mail address was AH2BEECAM(a)aol.com
I'll appreciate any help I can get. Thanks!

I haven't been receiving my Campbell Digest lately and I was wondering
what has happened?
Is there something wrong? I really enjoy reading them and also posting
once in awhile and hope
someone can help me soon! Maybe it is at my end. Don't know...
Hope to get connected back soon.... A Campbell forever!!

To anyone who might be needing to reach me, my new address is:
diarmid(a)eazy.net
This has to be all lower case with no capitals.
I know "eazy" sounds like a cross between lazy and sleazy, but it is the
less expensive of the local outfits with a reputation for good service.
This is my new address at home rather than in the office where the other
address will still work, but I would rather that Campbell-related messages
came to me at home when possible and have re-subscribed to teh List with
this address.
All best, Diarmid
Hi, Folks,
I just checked the University of Michigan's Virus Info web page at
http://www.umich.edu/~wwwitd/virus-busters/index.html. I used their
search link and the keyword "penpal". It lead me to
http://www.umich.edu/~wwwitd/virus-busters/hoax-penpals.html, the text of
which follows this message. I strongly suggest anyone receiving such
warnings check their validity, especially when it involves email, before
forwarding them on.

The "PENPAL GREETINGS! Virus" Is A Hoax
by Bruce P. Burrell (bpb(a)umich.edu
for the U-M Virus Busters (virus.busters(a)umich.edu)
Last Modified: 10 December 1996
This information can be freely reproduced in any medium, as long as
the information is unmodified.
Yet another email hoax: PENPAL GREETINGS! "virus"
As usual, we see another batch of silliness similar to other hoaxes like
the "Good Times" nonsense.
General rules:
1. The more exclamation points in a message, the more likely it is to be
bogus. Of course, one can write a hoax with no exclamation points too,
but it -is- a tipoff.
2. It is IMPOSSIBLE to get a virus merely by reading email --a virus must
execute to infect.
Note 1: Some email programs allow one to run email attachments
automatically -- for instance to launch an application or load a
document into Word. This is a Bad Idea; do not allow your email reader
to do this. You should scan all files you receive (or just delete them,
if you weren't expecting to get them) with an antivirus program first.
Note 2: As far as I know, no email program has as the DEFAULT the option to
launch as in Note 1. Some do have it, though; cc:Mail has the option,
but it is *not* the default (in the current version, anyway).
Note 3: As far as I know, no email program in common use at the University
of Michigan even has this option; Pine certainly doesn't, and I don't
think Eudora or MailDrop do either. More on this when I know for sure.
3. If you get a copy of this hoax by email, PLEASE reply to the sender to
let him or her know it is a hoax. Provide our web address too, if you
would (http://www.umich.edu/~wwwitd/virus-busters/) so we can help stamp
out this plague.
Thanks!

2 - yes, the proverbial 2 seconds - after I hit the transmit key, I found the
previous guidance from Diarmid telling us no, NOMAIL. Thanks for your
response. This time I'm making a note - in a place I'm sure to check -
beforehand.

A family letter dated 3 June 1909 contains some genealogical speculation
about an ex-congressman and ex-governor of Ohio, then practising law in New
York, by the name of Hon. J.E. Campbell (could be I.E. Campbell). He was
called back to Ohio from Washington because his mother Mary - said to be 95
or 96 and originally from Londonderry - was dying. My relatives thought she
may have been the wife of Alexander Campbell of Tamlet Parish who emigrated
to Ohio sometime after 1790s and most likely in the 1810s. Alexander had
seven sons - among them Alexander, Robert (went to California in 1849), and
Thomas (died after practising law for a few years) who was the only one of
the family to correspond with the Canadian side (Belleville, Ont.) of his
family. Alexander had one daughter, Emily, who was supposedly named after
her Canadian aunt-by- marriage, Emily Rosa (Swainston) Campbell.
I would be pleased if someone could identify that Campbell ex-governor of
Ohio for me and, ideally, provide some information about his parentage and
siblings, etc.
