Does anyone have access to "Your Family Tree" XVII(1):22 which lists
baptism of Joseph Campbell, adult, on 22 Sept. 1823 and on 17 Nov 1833 his
son, Alexander? I would like to know if there is more family information
included. These would be Joseph Harris Campbell b. 20 April 1793, d. ca.
1875, Huntingdon County, PA, and Alexander Campbell b. 30 August 1833,
Huntingdon County, PA; d. 04 September 1902, Centre County, PA.
Hello Fellow Campbell Researchers,
I'm looking for a Campbell family who was born in NY around 1780 or earlier. They had at least one son named William b. 1806 NY (my ancestor) and possibly other children.
I have information on a James Campbell b. abt 1802 NY and Hiram Campbell b. 1810 NY.
These three men were living in Wisconsin as early as 1849 according to census reports. They were all in Adams County, Wisconsin by 1860. My William died there in 1885.
According to one death record of my 2nd Great grandmother she was born in WAYNE Co., NY in 1837. Olive Celina/Selina Campbell Ward was her name. She was one of William's children by first wife. No idea what her mother's name was.
These were some of her siblings;
1. John Perry Campbell b. 1834 NY d. Rhinelander, WI
2. Eunice Amelia Campbell b. 1836 NY m. Ed Starling
3. My Olive
4. William Deloss Campbell b. 1841 NY d. Stevens Point, WI
5. Possibly Rachel b. 1843 St Lawrence Co., NY (no proof on this one).
About 1844 William married Jane Walker in NY
6. Daniel De Witt Campbell b. 1845 BROOME CO., NY
7. Hiram Eugene Campbell b. 1849 WI d. Adams, WI
8. Alzina/Alcina Campbell b. 1851 WI m J. Stanfler
9. Edwin/Edward Campbell b. 1853 WI d. Adams, WI
10 Delia Campbell b. 1855 WI m. Joseph Tunison
11. Ida Campbell b. 1858 WI
12. Grant Henry Campbell b. 1864 WI
Hoping to hear from someone with a New York, Wisconsin Campbell family too.

I am looking for information on Jonathan Sheppard CAMPBELL. He was born
September 07, 1798 in Vermont. He married Ozzima SAMSON/SAMPSON in 1822. I
know nothing of his parentage so any information would be useful or even a
point in the right direction would be helpful.
Thank You,

My great aunt always said her grandmother was a Cherokee, but no one knows
to which grandmother she was referring. Her maternal grandmother was Julia
Campbell from Georgia who settled into Clay County with her husband Zedekiah
McMath. They married in Buena Vista, GA.

Yes, there is pretty compelling indications that there was Indian
(Cherokee, perhaps) blood in my CAMPBELL family in AL. I don't
recognize your names, but I don't have all of them in the computer.
I'll check as soon as my office it put back together. The floor is
being redone and I can't get to anything but this laptop that I rescued.
My question is this. My husband has agreed to do the DNA testing.
Which company does the test which includes whether or not he has Native
American ancestry as well as the 37 marker test?
Alice Campbell
Have recently been informed of a rumor of Native American ancestry in the
William and Margaret Blackburn Campbell family of Jefferson Co. Tn and later to
Jefferson Co. Al by 1850 census.
Does anyone else have stories of such possible connections in these siblings
Our line is Harriett who married Will Sampels (died in CW) and later Isaac
James Drake of Blount/Cullman Co. Al.
Just wondering as I am doing a lot of Native American reading these days for
other lines.

Hi A.T.;
Thank you for the reprint of "Genealogy and Why We Do It". It is a wonderful statement of just why we spend so many hours researching our families. I started, like most everyone to research the male in my family, my Grandpa Morgan. When I made contact with a cousin in Washington state, he told me they had been researching for 25 yrs. and he would send me all the information. I looked it over, and discovered to my surprise that the women were almost ignored in details and stories of the families. Being the "pro-female" that I am, I decided to find out everything I could about my Grandma Morgan. There were some things that she had told me over the years, and I wrote everything down that I remembered. I also asked my sisters what they could remember. One of the sister's had a letter that was in my grandmother's papers when she died. It was from a cousin in Missouri, and he was giving her some genealogy of the family. It only went back a couple of generations, and was !
pretty
sketchy, but it was a great start.
Grandma's Story:
Briefly, my grandmother told me she was an "only" child, although she did say that she once had a brother, but he died. Her mother died when she was 9 yrs. old and she was sent to live with her grandparents. He father then "went West" and was never heard from again. She taught school for a time, and had a correspondence courtship with my Grandfather, Simon Hayes Morgan. She went to Dayton, Washington in 1903 (she was 24 yrs old) and met him, liked what she saw, and two weeks later they married. She also told me that her maiden name was Campbell, but didn't know where they were from in the U.S. but were originally from Scotland.
I have since found that she was descended from two Revolutionary War soldiers, Ambrose Campbell and Achilles Wright, that her Great Grandfather, Tandy Campbell, fought in the War of 1812. Her mother gave birth to 4 children. Two died in infancy, and her brother who was born 2 yrs after my grandmother, died young. My grandmother Minnie, was a young farmer's wife, and worked along side my grandfather. They have a lake named after them, and a road leading up to the lake called Morgan Road. It's close to Othello, Washington. His watermelon farm was next to the lake, and my grandfather devised an irrigation system so it was easier to water his crop. My grandmother and uncles moved the system of pipes and my grandfather did the pumping by hand. In the meantime, she had 5 sons and one daughter. The daughter was my mother. During the depression years, the family moved to California. My grandpa did gardening for some of the beautiful old homes in town, and my grandmother wor!
ked at
the YMCA as the housekeeper and sometimes cooked for large gatherings. After school, my sister and I would sometimes go and help my grandmother at her job. We were fortunate during those years, as most everything was grown on my grandparents little acre. We had a cow, fruit trees, vegetable garden, chickens, etc. So the family always had food on the table.....which was often shared with the neighbors.
Although my grandmother never knew what happened to her father, I was able to find him in the California records. He lived in San Francisco and Oakland, and eventually moved to Sonoma County (across the bay) and died in an automobile accident in 1934 at the age of 87 yrs. 1 mo. and 2 days. My grandmother had been in California since 1927. I wonder if she ever passed him on the street? Or maybe she went into the little grocery store that he had in Oakland. After all, she had sons who lived in the bay area, and we often visited them.
There is a lot more I could tell you about my grandmother, but that's probably the enough for now. She was always a bit less approachable than my grandpa, but now that I know about her, I can understand so much more. I have gained an appreciation and admiration for her that I never had before.

GENEALOGY AND WHY WE DO IT
We are the chosen. In each family there is one who seems called to find the ancestors. To put flesh on their bones and make them live again, to tell the family story and to feel that somehow they know and approve.
Doing genealogy is not a cold gathering of facts but, instead, breathing life into all who have gone before. We are the story tellers of the tribe. All tribes have one. We have been called, as it were, by our genes. Those who have gone before cry out to us: Tell our story. So, we do. In finding them, we somehow find ourselves. How many graves have I stood before now and cried? I have lost count. How many times have I told the ancestors, "You have a wonderful family; you would be proud of us." How many times have I walked up to a grave and felt somehow there was love there for me? I cannot say.
It goes beyond just documenting facts. It goes to who am I and why do I do the things I do. It goes to seeing a cemetery about to be lost forever to weeds and indifference and saying I can't let this happen.
The bones here are bones of my bone and flesh of my flesh. It goes to doing something about it. It goes to pride in what our ancestors were able to accomplish. How they contributed to what we are today. It goes to respecting their hardships and losses, their never giving in or giving up, their resoluteness to go on and build a life for their family.
It goes to deep pride that the fathers fought and some died to make and keep us a Nation. It goes to a deep and immense understanding that they were doing it for us.
It is of equal pride and love that our mothers struggled to give us birth, without them we could not exist, and so we love each one, as far back as we can reach. That we might be born who we are. That we might remember them. So we do.
With love and caring and scribing each fact of their existence, because we are they and they are the sum of who we are. So, as a scribe called, I tell the story of my family. It is up to that one called in the next generation to answer the call and take my place in the long line of family storytellers.
That is why I do my family genealogy, and that is what calls those young and old to step up and restore the memory or greet those whom we had never known before.
(unknown author)
PLEASE, I have found NO OTHER statement to better explain
our effort.
YES I know there is no Family information here, BUT i see so much posted that I believe this BIT Could bring us to better understand WHY we try to do the things that we do, SO as to reap that great feeling we get when some one is able to find that
Answer that we have all been trying so hard to locate & just THINK that BIT that <SOME ONE> You, Your Cousin or that Persistent OLD Pest that so often gets trashed, What do you know THA ole goat finally found something. Cousins That is Why I am sending this <BIT> Because the reason that WE NOT I, but all of us are Needed to bring this, <BIT TO FRUITION>.
These are som of my Families but I am Related to ALL of the
People that I ha listed & then alot more.
Cousins I hope that each of MY Cousins have read this & PLEASE, SAY YOUR thoughts to. CUZ A T <atpowelljr(a)aol.com>
There must be something you can think to say, Good, Bad OR________??
Thanks Kara!

If you have Morrises from Alabama who served in the Civil War, the Alabama
Department of Archives and History has finally placed surname M records on line.
For the longest time only surnames beginning A-L were available, but now they
have surnames beginning with M and N.

do so privately. This falls in the same category as "Me Too" and
