Wanda, My Edward came in to Charleston in 1788, so yours was here before mine. I looked in the book "Carolina Scots" and I couldn't believe that there wasn't an Edward Campbell in there. If you are sure that he was in Cumberland County, NC you should get on the Rootsweb list for that county also. When you make a query to the list give as much info as you have even if it is something that you just think may be. Try to give all names and places and relatives known to you. You may want to try the USGenweb site and go to NC and make a general search for him, he may have been somewhere in NC before the 1790 census that would show up on land, Tax list or an early census that some states did or counties. SC did one in 1779. Good luck. Bob Campbell Birmingham, AL
