If anyone knows anything of this family, please let me know. I have hit
such a major brick wall on it. Henry Jackson Campbell was born abt. 1842.
He married Flura Wood in Warren Co. TN in Aug. of 1862. They had a son whom
they also named Henry Jackson Campell. He married Mary Louisa Ransom from
Grundy Co. TN, daughter of George Washington Ransom and Cynthia Rodgers
Ransom. Supposedly, the first H.J was a circuit riding preacher from East
TN but I cannot find any data on him until his marriage to Flura Wood.
Their descendant, Flura Campbell Hays is still alive at 93 and says she was
always told the family was 'black Irish'. She also said once that they had
some Cherokee in their family. That's all I could ever get out of her.
I have found a possible "maybe" in John and Sarah Campbell who married in
7-1813 in Giles Co. TN and had the following children:
George
James H
Alexander Thomas
Emaline
Jackson
Margaret Ann
Caroline
John Eaton
Robert
The parents of John were Alexander and Amy Eaton Campbell. I have no idea
if they are connected or not, but the child "Jackson Campbell" has me
curious. Any help would be so greatly appreciated.
