Lilly,
Do you know of any direct-line male descendents of these people? If
there are, perhaps we could get them to join in the Campbell DNA study
being performed by FamilyTreeDNA. My earliest known ancestor was John
D. Campbell (1812-1890) from the piedmont of NC. He could well be a
grandson of your John Campbell.

I would like to discuss John Campbell, b. 1750 d. 1-29-1833 Amherst Co., VA.
He was s/o George Campbell and Margaret.
He was married to Catherine Campbell, she died 1797.
This man was one of 13 children, 8 brothers and 4 sisters.
This man had a goal in life, to reconsolidate his Father's original Farm. So systematically he bought-out his brother's share of the Farm, and became sole owner of the original acreage.
The dates of the buy out are 1819 thru 1826, give or take.
His brothers were: Ambrose, Joel, George T., William, Samuel, James, Henry, and Edward.
Because of the 'buy-out' some or all of these men may have left the area, some may have gone to Kentucky or other locales which were just then being settled.
I bring this subject to the attention of all the researchers, as this 'buy-out' situation may be helpful to researchers who have found a Campbell man, but don't know where he came from.
I think this subject might be really important for us all to discuss together, to identify which of those 'bought-out' brother remained, on other land in Nelson and Amherst Co VA, and which 'took-off-a-packing' to new places.
I personally am descended of his brother George T. Campbell, who died 11-23-1801. I do not know if John had already bought him out prior to his death, or if he had to buy out the heirs of George?
This John Campbell was a Revolutionary soldier, some researchers say his wife was Frances WRIGHT, but others say her maiden name is unproven.
I believe his father George Campbell's will was proven 2-7-1791, Will Book #3, page 169.
9 Campbell men, all in one family unit. It is a big opportunity to find out what happened to them and what families they started in KY, TN, AL and other points.
It might be a nice joint-project to determine where all his siblings settled.
Best regards,
Lilly Martin

Well, I from one of the three groups of Campbells in Iredell, We have
the Aeneas group, the Percihull group and the "I forget who" group.
Larry Campbell
Lucinda,
My Campbells (more specifically John D. Campbell 1812-1890) were locatec
next-door in Lincoln/Catawba County. I probably have a tie-in with the
Campbells in Iredell but haven't been able to prove it yet. Would be
happy to collaborate with you.

One of our brick walls is the what-all (how's that for a coined word!) of
two of the sons of Ellis & Elizabeth YOUNG CAMPBELL. At least we think they
were sons of this couple, but who knows...
On the 1840 Ripley co, MO census Ellis has three sons & a dat (beside the
wife).
On the 1850 Shannon co, MO census the family is listed as:
Ellis age 46 b VA
Elizabeth age 35 b TN
Matthew age 17 b AL
James age 15 b AL
Ambrose (Andrew?) age 14 b AL
Derias (DORCAS a female) age 10 b MO...etc...
What happened to Matthew & Ambrose/Andrew? James is James Mehlander "Mel"
Campbell, who is our ancestor... seems Mel never mentioned these brothers,
although he mentioned sisters who died very young. Were Matthew & Ambrose
actually Campbell's? Did a neighbor give the information incorrectly? We
know for documented fact that the Derias listed as a male 10 yrs old was
actually a female named Dorcas (1840, 1860-80 census & other documents).
Could a neighbor had seen these kids all dressed alike, with overalls and
scraggy hair, and thought them to all be boys? Could they have assumed
these other two boys were sons of Ellis instead of siblings or sons of
Elizabeth, or just plain orphans? If siblings or sons of Elizabeth.. they
would probably have carried the name YOUNG ..Matthew & Ambrose YOUNG b AL..
could Elizabeth have been married before Ellis & had sons? We know one
daughter of Elizabeth has Elizabeth COBB as maiden name for Elizabeth..
could this be Elizabeth's real last name? We may never know.. Think if we
could find these links, we may be a bit closer to finding Ellis Campbell's
parents for certain.
And why did James Mehlander Campbell's son James list his father as Hiram?
sheesh!

Dear Katie,
My Great-Grandfather, Robert C. Campbell, was born in Pennsylvania in 1817, in the Butler, Pennsylvania area; he died in 1898 in Butler County, Pennsylvania. His wife's name was Nancy A. (maiden name unknown). They are buried near Boyers, Pennsylvania. (Great-Grandfather's parents are buried in Bear Creek Cemetery in Butler County, Pennsylvania, near the town of Bruin, not too far from Parker.
Robert C. and Nancy A. had several children, and this is from memory, so I may leave out one or two, but they were: John, James Bartholda (Jim), Thomas (Tom) Jefferson, Robert (Bob), Sarah (died when she was ten years old), Virginia, and another female that her name escapes me right now; the last two female's nicknames were Viney (rhymes with "by knee"), and Eva (sounds like "Eh-va"). Then there was another female who died shortly after having given birth to a daughter, if I remember correctly.
Robert C.'s and Nancy A.'s son, Thomas Jefferson Campbell was my grand-father, who also is buried in the same cemetery. His wife's name was Winifred F. (Frances? a guess of mine) Butler Campbell, daughter of William H. Butler and Lydia Anne Thom. Their son, my father, was Thomas Roger Campbell, born May 21, 1905, in Pennsylvania, and died at age 99, this year on May 30, 2004, and is buried in Okmulgee, Oklahoma.
The generations of my family are quite long due to their longevity, and the babies of the families coming late in their parent's child-bearing years. For instance, I was born when my daddy was 42-43, and my daddy was born when his daddy was in his forties, etc. Therefore, from 1947, when I was born, to my great-grandfather's birth spans 128 years, rather than the usual four generation time span. Amazing! Scottish DNA is the best medicine!
My father told me that my great-grandfather had lived in Ohio prior to moving to Pennsylvania with his parents.
Who knows if it's a match, but one never knows. Good Luck in your searching.
Merry Christmas,

Dear List Administrator and fellow Listers,
Thankyou for this fascinating resource for people who are doing their family history. It continues to be a very big help to me.
Thankyou to everyone on the list for all the interesting emails I have read. There is alot I have learned about genealogy and resources to use just from reading them and special thanks to those who have helped me during 2004. It has been very much appreciated.
This forum is such a wonderful resource, I LOVE it.
Wishing everyone a very happy Christmas and best wishes for 2005. May everyone's searches be very fruitful in the new year.
Looking forward to 2005.
Cheers everyone.

I have been researching the family of my friend Barbara Campbell in Canmore,
Canada.
We have arrived at a "brick wall" regarding Robert and I thought I'd drop
a line on the off chance that someone may have some knowledge or information
about Robert or how to find him.
I am not a professional genealogist - I am merely trying to help my friend
find her ancestors.
According to a document I have, the Robert Campbell I'm looking for
subscribed his name to settle land across from Fort Niagara after fighting
in the war
for 7 years. He was born in America in about 1756, however his birthplace
is unknown. It may well be in New York state somewhere, but that is only a
guess.
In 1929, Roberts great grandson, George William Campbell, wrote a family
history stating that Robert Campbell's ancestors had come to America in the
late 1600s following the Earl of Argyll's execution. I believe that was
Archibald.
Records show that Lord Neil Campbell, a brother of the Earl of Argyll, took
refuge in Perth Amboy in East Jersey in 1686 and was accompanied by numerous
family and clan members. Two of Lord Campbells sons and their families had
already emigrated to America as early as 1684.
Robert Campbell was a law student when the war broke out and he enlisted
with Butlers Rangers. He is listed in that company at Niagara on 30
November 1783 as a 27 year old. He married Mary Priscilla Smith in about
1782 in Ontario and died 24 January 1824 in Grantham, Ontario.
Perhaps this is sufficient, all though I have much more information. My
friend is very keen to try to eatablish his place of birth and as well as
his parentage - and further, if possible.
I shall keep my fingers crossed that some kind and helpful person may be
able to provide us with more information!
Thank you
Regards
Lorna

Hello if it helps,
Archibald the 9th Earl was executed in 30 June 1685, supposedly along with
his son.
Is your friend related to Archibald at all?
thank you,

All I want for Christmas is a family for my Richard CAMPBELL. According to
his tombstone, he was born 1 Apr 1821. He married Mildred "Addie" McMACKIN
on 21 Jul 1847 in Lawrence County, TN. I think they were in Hickman County
in 1830. In 1848, they were living in Perry County but returned to Lawrence
where Richard died in 1887.
A William CAMPBELL married Addie's sister Lucy McMACKIN. He was possibly a
brother of my Richard but there is no proof of that.
There were other CAMPBELLs in every location where Richard and Addie lived
but I have found nothing to tie him to any of them.

Hi - I'm new to this list - think I should have tried it before!!!
The Campbells I am looking for come from, in the late 1700, early 1800,
Roseneath, DNB. Several of them moved to Glasgow as indeed my main family,
McKellar did.
James Campbell, b. abt 1820, m.Janet McKellar. b 4/8/1821 in Roseneath on 26
Nov 1844. They had 6 known children:
Donald b. 1848
John b. 1852.
Mary Christine b. 1850
James b. 1855
Janet b. 1857
Christian b. 1860.
All were born in Rosneath and 1881 census shows James, Janet and 2 children,
Mary Christine and Christina (Christian) at home Private Ho. No1, Roseneath.
One presumes the other children had flown the coop! No other information do
disprove that.
I have yet to check later cesuses for them.
Another Campbell family was Janet McKellar's sister Jean, b 27 Apr 1827,
Roseneath, m. Donald Campbell b about 1824/25 (There are2 options for a
Donald Campbell b. in Rosneath!! - have checked Sct's people, but "No image"
so may have to buy when I can afford it!!! - perhaps someone on the list can
help??!))
They had 6 children:
Donald 7/1/1855
John 21/11/1857
Archibald 1/3/1860
Christina 16/5/1862
Mary 23/4/1864
Janet 1/8/1867
First 4 born Tradeston,Glasgow. Mary born Bridgeton, Glasgow, Janet born
Rutherglen, Lanark.
They are listed on 1881 census at 156 Mill Street, Rutherglen, Lanark - Mary
being the only one missing.
I also have them on the 1861 census index with a brother of Janet living
with them, Archibld age 42.
Janet and Jean were 2 of 10 children born to John Mckellar and Christina
Chalmers in Roseneath. Their brother, Robert, was my great grandfather.
I am really interested in the children and if anyone is connected to, or
knows, of any of these two families - I would be delighted to hear from you.
Thank you
