I am looking for information on Dr John Campbell 1823 - 1866 and his wife
Charity (no maiden name) 1831-1861.
According to the 1860 census, they were living in Antioch, Indiana
(Huntington County near present day Andrews.)
There are six people listed in the household in 1860: John (37) and Charity
(29); also their children Adelbert (9), Araminta (7), John (4), and Rolla
(1). Adellbert, John, and Rolla were male and Araminta was female. John and
Charity (and possibly Adelbert) were born in Ohio.
My GGgrandfather, Adelbert (went by Elbert,) married Barbara Ann Rupley in
Wabash county, Indiana in 1875 were he settled to raise his family.
According to the census, John was listed as a physician. Since Antioch was
near the Erie Canal, I would think that there may be some record of him out
their. Also as a doctor, he may have come from a higher income family in
Ohio, one that might have kept better records. Family tradition has his
family from around Edon, Ohio (Williams County) in the north west corner of
the state, but there is no proof of that anywhere that I have seen.
If this family sounds familiar, please E-mail me.
Thanks
Kevin
