I understand "Chatty" and "Flaming Messages", but what is a "Me Too"
message?
Chatty, Me Too and Flaming messages WILL NOT be a proper message for the
List.
BUT I BELIVE that Cousin Marge's potential connection to just abt any one
is just as good as the MYTH of what MAY have been from some one that has been
dead for Hundred's of Years
CUZ A T
From Sea Ports from Boston to Savannah Ga. Had Immigrants landing in those
Ports. Then those People Settled the Country From the East, Mostly WESTWARD.
YET there is an abundance of effort spent against MY contention.
OK, NOW; I would like For Cousin George Campbell that Says
That he was Answering Mine & Jim Campbell's Question, CUZ
Will you Please tell Just how that you Can get Authenticity from <Perhaps-
Therefore, IF your <Assuming My Campbell's> Campbell Ancestors emigrated from
Ireland and you have no proof that his Ancestors Came from Scotland, then you
must Consider The <POSSIBILITY> that he did not Descend from the Scottish
Clan Campbell.
OF COURSE it is always POSSIBLE,??
Just What Does: Perhaps; ALWAYS POSSIBLE, THEREFORE, IF
have to do with OR prove Authenticity.
IN my interruption of your Answer I must be related to SOMEONE.
I believe that there is no Problem with D. N. A. From the Living to the
Living Or if it was Stored after extraction from the DEC. BUT the part of
there Being so many living having the Same Marker, FROM _____??? JUST what proves
that these Many People With the SAME Marker DID in fact descend from any
Given George Campbell???? when there never was ANY psychical Material from that
George Campbell___ MORE ???
NOW AGAIN: JUST WONDERING, The 19 page Story ABT Michael Wood, It is
interesting, BUT there are alot of, Maybe's
Might have Beens, In plain Language I believe that Some Came along AFTER
the Country was Settled & Wrote a Very GOOD
Version of what Did & Could have Happened & I very well Descend from Their
Son Josiah Wood, BUT WHERE is THE Connection to OUR Albemarle, Amherst &
Nelson County Campbell's.
According to the Record of the Formation of Virginia Counties The Formation
Started 8 Shires in the Eastern Part of Va ABT 1623/24 then on to the
Formation of the Various Counties From The East New Kent in 1654, Hanover in 1721,
Louisa in 1742 to Albemarle in 1744, Amherst in 1761. Orange County Formed
in1734 From Spotsylvania, Which was Formed from ESSEX, King William & King & Queen
Counties, in 1721, STILL from East to
West.
HERE IS A NOTE OF INTEREST; William Cable Born March/9/1687 in Warminster,
England, & Died April/12/1774 at
Warminster Virginia, A town <no-longer existing> that he had Founded on
Swan Creek in Present DAY Nelson County .
THIS from the #-1 EDITION of the Amherst County Heritage Book <Sources:
Alexander Brown, The Cabell's and their Kin <Boston: Houghton, Miffin, 1885
Submited By Love L. Foster.
From the direction that the history of the Formation of the State & Dates
I have MUCH trouble Accepting that the First People in The Area That is now
Albemarle, Amherst & Nelson Counties as Having came into the Area from the North
West
I used to live in Amelia County Where there is A whole lot of DEER hunting &
Those, Lynch's That set their Dogs after the DEER
were asked how the DEER got those big set of horns through the woods, Their
Answer was That was the Deer Business, THAT I will go along with,_BUT- when
Y.ALL have Wagon Trains Crossing the Blueridge Mountains ABT 300 years ago,
THAT takes more imagination Than I have.
FROM all of the Probabilities, IF someone would have & Likely Did Come from
The Winchester Area to the Charlottesville Area
They would More than likely to have came east Along what is to day U. S.
Route 50 Around the North End of the Big Mountain & came down Through what is now
Warenton Va to Charlottesville.
THIS Woods Gap Sounds Very much Like what is today Route 33 From
Harrisonburg To Ruckersville Va. COORS Brewery Just Had some Mash Tanks Hauled Across RT
3 3 & they Had to Close ROUTE 33 to Other Traffic to enable the Wide Loads to
Get over the Current Road. <?? & Y,ALL HAVE WAGON TRAIN OR HOW ever the Woods
Making the Trip 300 YEARS ago??> Through the
THE Virgin Forest. CUZ BUCKY, I think that the story was Interesting. BUT
I am going to keep on The Genealogical Theory that MY 6th Grt Grand Pa George
Campbell, <That Married Margaret> Came from The Eastern Part of Va. INTO the
Mountain's of Albemarle County. I realize That our Ancestors were resourceful,
BUT Going Around the Mountain Sounds more Logical that Crossing the Thick
Forest. JUST take a good Luck at
what is along the road as one drives across the Mountain Today & Picture a
Wagon Traveling through the woods that you
see when you Look out of the Car. I was raised in some of those Mountains &
used to go walking there, & in my Life time it Did NOT look like a Wagon
Trail, OUR ancestors were REAL good at getting to some place else BUT they were
Human Not Mountain GOATS, CUZ A. T. <atpowerlljr(a)aol.com>

Subject: CAMPBELL-D Digest V06 #207
I will reply to what I consider the question raised by Jim Campbell and A.T. Powell. In the 16th and 17th centuries the protestant English kings "planted" protestant Scots in the Ulster Plantation to subdue the catholic Irish (this fight is still continuing). These Scots, when they immigrated to America, were considered to be Scotch-Irish and tended to form their own groups distinct from the Scots from Scotland. One center of these Scotch-Irish was Londonderry, NH, whither my ancestor, Thomas Campbell, immigrated at the beginning of the 18th century.
Perhaps because the Scotch-Irish had greater prestige and influence in Ireland than the indigenous Irish, the members of the Irish Clan Cathmhaol, which was pronounced "Cammel" similar to a pronounciation of "Campbell" started writing their name as "Campbell". Thus many Campbells in Ireland, especially those from Tyrone, are genetically not related to the Scottish Campbells. The Irish Clan Cathmhaol claims descent from the Irish high king, Niall of the Nine Hostages, who died at the beginning of the fifth century.
Therefore, if your Campbell ancestor emigrated from Ireland and you have no proof that his ancestors came from Scotland, then you must consider the possibility that he did not descend from the Scottish Clan Campbell. Only a DNA test of a male relative can determine this. Of course it is always possible that his ancestors were neither Irish nor Scottish, but that somewhere along the line someone simply adopted the name Campbell. DNA can determine this too.
George Campbell
You are SO right on the Family name in Research . When I see A Surname as a
First or 2nd Name it rings BELL's Most of the time it will lead to a
Connection that one is Looking for that is Why I Serach so many Family Names. IT IS
Self defeating to Research just one Family NameS So many People Married Cousins &
THAT wasn't just way back There was a Marriage Between Cousins in My
Campbell's less than 5 YEARS ago. A T
For example, AT, a friend of mine's maiden name was Campbell and she named
her daughter Mary Campbell J_____ with Campbell being her middle name. She
calls her the whole thing..."Mary Campbell". I love it. Also think it would
definitely give clues if anyone in the future is researching her line.
ATTEN Bobby Campbell Hopper,
I would Have to Question ANY ones Reaearch Experience that
Questioned The use of Sur Names as Given Names, That person does not
encounter a Brick wall They ARE their Own Brick Wall. In My family , in 5
Generations there 16 Members with Family Sur Names as First Or 2nd Names.

Marge, you are correct. Anna is Alice. I found her living in Benton

I'll start looking to see if Myrtle is really Margaret. Thanks, again!

I hope this isn't seen as an overtly commercial plug - my apologies, as it
sincerely is not intended.
Over the last two years I have received a lot of email from people on this
list about my intended Clan Campbell Collection of Highland Pipe Music as
news circulated that the project was underway.
This is to let those interested know that it was published about three weeks
ago by Duntroon Publishing. It is slowly wending its way out to various
music shops and book shops. It is also available on Amazon.co.uk and we are
hoping it will also be available through Inveraray Castle and CCSNA.
You can, I believe, also get it through any bookshop in the world by quoting
the ISBN number 0954633482
The Duke of Argyll kindly wrote a foreword.
You can get details via www.duntroonpublishing.com or from me directly
through this email.
Many thanks - there is quite a bit of history in the book.

test indicated any connection to the Campbells of VA?

Jim Campbell wrote not to laugh but now he knows he's of Scottish descent so probably a "real" Campbell. I would like to point out that about a third of the people whose name is Campbell are not of Clan Campbell descent. Based on the data Kevin Campbell sent out in Jan. of this year, I found the following distribution for males with the name Campbell:
66% have Scottish DNA so probably descended from the Scottish Clan Campbell
16% have Irish DNA so probably descended from the Irish Clan Cathmhoal, who changed their name to Campbell. I belong to this group.
18% are not related to anyone.
As the DNA data base grows we'll certainly learn a lot more so I would like to encourage everyone with the name Campbell to take the DNA test.

One of my great great great great grandfathers married a Elizabeth Fairman.
and I just couldn't find anything about her and then come to find out her
name was Martha Elizabeth Fairman and she was called Elizabeth. So sometimes
we just have to keep digging and we will come across the information. The
Campbells used the same names so much it can get so confusing and they used
nicknames or was called by middle names.
I had one lady say that she didn't think they would use a Last name as a
frist Name ha ha she was oh so wrong. I have a great uncle and a uncle that
are had the frist name Fairman ha ha I told her and she laughed and said I'm
was sure wrong in my thinking.

George,
That's not exactly what I said. I said that I knew that I was a
Campbell. Many years ago, my Grandfather Campbell told me that our
family was Scotch-Irish. (That means that my forefathers were
originally from Scotland, spent some time in Northern Ireland, and then
came to America.) My grandfather also told me that my family entered
America through the port of Philadelphia, then came down the Great Wagon
Road and ended up in the Piedmont of North Carolina. Unfortunately, I
was not interested in genealogy at that young age and didn't question
him further. I have now spent almost 30 years looking for information
that he possibly could have given me in a few minutes.
