Hi Neil:
I still haven't found all my notes on the Campbell's from the Middlesex
county NJ area.
Do you have Dugel's will information (Can't recall if I ever sent it to
you)? I don't recall if it listed all the children or not. I have few
pages of the NJ Campbell Wills and probates from a book with wills up to
1820 or so.
I have the following:
(NOTE: there were more than one Dugald Campbell in Middlesex/Somerset county
NJ during this time).

Brown, and Jonathan Dunham. Executors- wife, Rodey, Wm Mackdaniel of
Woodbridge, and Neil Campbell of Piscataqua. Witnesses- Samuel Ayres, John
Campbell, Wm Sharp, Jr. Proved Dec 2, 1734 Lib B, p 583.

Hope this is of help...
I know that Dugald who married Sarah Bloomfield was father of Ellis R
Campbell who married Nancy Clawson in the home of Dr Melanctom (many
spellings) Freeman. I have seen two marriage dates...
I have the military records for Ellis R, and also couple of DAR applications
in which he was used as the patriot.
The person who sent me the packet of information was researching David
Campbell.. and if I recall correctly, she extracted all the Campbell
mentions from the following:
Drake Collection
Genealogical Society of NJ
Surname Campbell
Folder 046
Location:
Special Collections and Archives
New Jersey Room
Alexander Library
Rutgers University
New Brunswick, NJ
(these copies seem to be from years ago.. all are hand written, except for
some of the wills.. these were photocopied and placed on the handwritten
pages).
I don't have the persons name who sent me this material..but I have found it
interesting & it has helped me many times.
