Winny, wife of Abraham Campbell was known as a witches. However, we believe
it was because family tradition says that she was raised by the Indians and
we believe that she was 1/2 Ind. and she was called a witches because she
made medication from herbs in the Indian way.

I am looking for information about the Family of Michael Campbell, b Ireland
in 1815. He married Susan in Philadelphia and came to Iowa. Located
eventually in Monroe County. He died about 1865 (if I remember right). Had a
son, Michael, who married Nancy Sloan (second wife).

Dear Dr. Crater,
I'm very interested in your book on the Campbells. By way of short
background, my earliest proven ancestor is George Washington Campbell
1814-1866 (Madison County, Alabama). In many posted lines, he is shown as
one of the sons of Theophilus M. Campbell b. Iredell County, about 1777. As
best I can determine, this was a hypothetical line. There was "A" Theophilus
Campbell b. about 1796 whose line is documented, and I believe was a
descendant of Perciphul.
Of the five Campbells in Madison County in the early 1800s: Adam, James, John
Cook, George Washington, and William Marion., William was documented as the
son of a Theophilus, but I do not believe the above mentioned was the correct
ancestor. I believe John Cook and William Marion are brothers and the other
three brothers and probably cousins of the former.
I'm traveling now with my laptop, with most of my information/documentation
at home. I spent about two weeks earlier this year in the LDS library, and
with the help of two paid professional/certified genealogists, could not
document any connection to the five Campbells in northern Alabama to the
hypothetical Theophilus.
I would appreciate your comments on this, and am anxious to share what I have
with you. I simply cannot get 'my' George Washington Campbell beyond Madison
County, Alabama.
Thank you for any assistance and suggestions/comments.

Dear Campbell List,
The Union Grove NC Campbell Family is trying to put together a book on
the Adam or Percival (Pierciphul) Campbell Family. I have been working
on this family for over 30 years and need help. I am not making any
money on this and donating my services to this group. If you have any
old pictures that you can send to me digitally or my mail, I will copy
pictures and return to you. I also would like to receive ged files on
any families or auxillary families. I will list you as a reference for
each person or material that we use so no one will get credit for what
you have done but yourself.
I am a retired professor so I know about using references for others
material that is used. I am disabled with cronic pain and try to work
on genealogy every minute that I feel like it. I have a portable
computer adn can lay in bed adn do my work.
However I need your help. Please contact me if you can help in any
way.
Sincerely,
D Crater, PhD

Lena Kathleen Campbell married Obadiah "Obe" C. Thompson in Union County,
Mississippi on April 25, 1888. I assume that her Campbell family had moved
there from Alabama as she listed it as her place of birth in the 1890 census
. Have any of you Alabama or Mississippi Campbell Family researchers run
across Lena Kathleen's name?

Hi, I am searching for Campbell's also. Robert B.came to Ga.in 1837,don't
know where he was before that time.He had a wife [?] and several children.The
children were ,John,Robert ,Samuel A., Martha ,Nancy ,Rosanna, maybe one son
, deceased.After his death in1848,his children were under gaurdianship of
L.A.Mc Afee,but were not listed in his household .Can't find any trace of
them.Do any of these names ring a bell???? My brick wall; but I keep
searching!!!!!!! Thank you and good luck with your search. If I can help
,I will be happy to do so ! Take care, JOY
I too have a branch of SC Campbells, that begins with a John J Campbell,
b. 1845/49. He is not listed in the 1850, 1860 or 1870 census. No deeds
or anything. He states in the 1900 Darlington Census that his father was
b. in Ireland and mother in SC.
His wife, Cynthia Jane Elmore, daughter of Ellis Elmore and Eliza Ann
Wilkerson, both of Darlington, joined the Wesley Chapel Methodist Church
in Lydia, Darlington, in 1878 as Cynthia Campbell. No mention of John
J.. He may have had a sister named Addie, as an Addie Campbell married a
McGowan King in 1878 in the Wesley Chapel Church in 1878 and John and
Cynthia named their first daughter Addie.
John is listed in the 1880 Darlington Census with wife Cynthia and her
mother Eliza in Lydia Township. A boarder Willie Caddell is living with
them. John is also listed in the 1900 Darlington Census in the Thad
Stephens Township on Stokes Bridge Road in Darlington. He is NOT listed
in the 1910 census, but died in 1911 from a fall from a ladder while
lighting a lamp over the dining room table. They lived on Stokes Bridge
Road at that time.
Any Help Out There?

Arizonarchitect,
'Put to the horn' meant that they had failed to fulfill what a court ordered
or had broken the law intentionally and were in effect 'fair game' and could
be hunted down. In most cases they seem to have been safe at home with
their kindred to protect them until the sheriff came and arrested them, the
intention was a threat to restrict their movements I would think.

When you say the address doesn't work, what messages are you getting??
You can try, if all else fails, to:
1. Do a "search" such as on Google on the name using "" "" around the name
ie: "Mary Jane Scott" and be prepared to look through volumes of "hits".
2. Do a "post" on other lists that she might be on, hobbies genealogy, etc.
asking others if they know her.
the address from Campbell Genealogy Forum, mazi(a)bigpond.com, for Samantha
Campbell doesnt work. Got any ideas as I've got lots of corrections/updates
to the Anthony Campbell/Isabella Irvine notes on
http://www.ccsna.org/forums/genealogy/messages/851.html#postfp.

"and their followers put to the horn."
What an interesting expression. What does it mean?

Hello Charlcy
I know exactly how it feels to slam into that brick wall! I was at a
brick wall with my Campbell Clan for years. This is how I broke through
that my wall.
I talked to my elder 2nd cousins who were grandchildren of my g. grandmother
Sallie B. Campbell b. KY d. TX. I was fortunate to have one age 85 living
who was very close to her and was able to tell me where she had been living
when she died and the approx. year she died. From that point, I found out
which county those towns were in and while in TX, I was able to make a copy
of the TX deat index for "Smith" her surname at time of death.. as if
Campbell wasn't a common enough name, she marries a Smith... do you know how
many Smiths died in TX between 1904-1940? Oh MY!!! Anyway, I couldn't
believe it! There was one Sallie Smith who died in 1942 in Hunt County.
So I had the year and county match and I took a chance and got a copy of the
deat certificate. This in hand, I now knew her parents names. Hugh M.
Campbell and Lou Karris..... or did I? I had her daddy's name but her
momma's name was recorded as a nick name and the last name was spelled
differently than I've found the Carriss' spell their name now.
The other wonderful thing that happened was someone was kind enough to do a
obit search on the rootsweb database and found an obit for my grandfather's
sister which named her surviving children's names. I then used the white
pages online and got a couple of phone numbers and left off the wall
messages for them and found 2 of my cousins who were grandchildren of my g.
grandmother. We have been in contact with each other now for 2 years and
have been able to join with 3 of our other Campbell family members from
Sallie's siblings and have started our own Website now. In fact, one of my
Campbell Cousins will be in town tomorrow and we will probably be meeting
for the first time in person, I'm so excited!
Well, that's how I broke through my brick wall. I played a detective's
roll and look where I am now, much further than I ever expected to be....
I've always heard it said in the ancestry circle that we should start with
our family members and work back... I had always thought it meant
statistically but for me it worked practically.
Good luck, I'll keep my eyes open for your family members names.
Hope my little novel helps someone break through their own brick wall.
Jean

I too am seeking a line which has hit the "Great Brick Wall" I do not know
what
to do or where to go. My gg grandmother was Elizabeth Wheeler, and her
parents
were Oliver Wheeler and Lydia Gratton. I can't find them either, all I know
is Lydia's
mother was a Campbell and she married a Gratton/Grattan. Elizabeth was born
about 1783 I am not sure if in Washington Co. VA or CT. She married 1798 in
Washington Co., VA
a Isaac Hitchcock. I have tried everything. If some one out there could
give me a few tips
I would appreciate it greatly.
Thank You.
Charlcy

Am seeking information on mu paternal gggg-grandparents, James and
Amelia Campbell. Very little is known about their origins. James was
probably born sometime between 1774 and 1778 in either Virginia or North
Carolina. Amelia's maiden name is unknown; she was born about 1780,
probably in South Carolina. The date and location of James and Amelia's
marriage is also unknown. They moved to Madison County, Missouri
(Louisiana Territory at that time) in about 1801.Had 9 children, all
born in Madison County, MO. James Campbell died in about 1826 in
Missouri. Around 1830, Amelia and all 9 children moved to centrall
Illinois-Morgan then Scott Counties. Amelia Campbell died in 1859 and is
buried in Campbell Hollow Cemetery in Scott County, Illinois. Please
Note: This is not the James and Amelia (Harrison) Campbell that were
married Nov. 5, 1795 in Rockingham County, Virginia. Thank you.
Sincerely, Nancy Arnold.
