I have a John Watson Campbell born 1822 in NC who was married to Hulda
Wheeler born 1820 in Blount Co., TN. John Watson may have been on the 1830 census
of Blount Co., TN with a male 0-5, 1 male 10-15, 1 male 30-40 and 1 male
70-80. 1 female 20-30 and 1 female 30-40. The John Watson's parents are supposed
to be John Campbell and Kate Watson. ( I don't have any proof of this). John
Watson had brothers Daniel born 1828 in TN and James born 1831 in TN. They
were on the Dade Co., MO census in 1850. John Watson Campbell and wife were in
Ark and Texas. He died in Belcherville, TX. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks, Carol Coble

Hi Sheila,
If the kirk session minutes are available I would think you would
find the mother's name there. I believe it ws common for Scottish
children were baptized at home - I am almost certain that I was - 'in
accordance with my father's Scottish tradition' - even though we
were living south of the border!
I don't know how you can see the session minutes without being in
Scotland though.
Cheers,
Mary
