Campbell....appears I got the wrong fact stuck in my head....
http://books.google.com/books?id=FZE-AAAAYAAJ&pg=PA188&lpg=PA188&...
Genealogical and memorial history of the state of New Jersey Vol 1
edited by Francis Bazley Lee p187-188;
"The partner and proxy in East Jersey of his brother and Sir (George
McKenzie was David Toshack, with whom John Campbell made his curious
agreement, shortly after settling at I'erth Amboy, that in consideration
of Toshack's rclinciuisliing to him "and his heirs bearing the name and
arms of Campbell," all his (Toshack's) interest in Amboy, he (Campbell)
would send a "footman in velvet, to wait on Moneybaird ( Toshack was
Laird of Moneybaird) as a proprietor wdien at Parliament in East Jersey
* * * and to hold his stirrup during the foresaid time of Parliament."
From this it would appear that John Campbell was a near relation to the
Duke of Argyle and Lord Neill Campbell, although not as William Adee
Whitehead conjectures, a son of the latter, who had but two children ---
Col. Charles Campbell, who fought and died in the rebellion of 1685,
^"'i Right Rev. Archibald Campbell, who died uimiarried in London, June.
1744, having accompanied his father in 1685 to this country and at a
later date returned home."
Oddly, he goes on to mention these Campbells had to abide by a decision
of William Emley and John Reid and that his widow sold the property to
John Reid...odd in that it turns out he another relation of mine through
Garrison/Sands...and that John's son John Campbell of Somerset and
Middlesex counties and was high sheriff there had settled on the Raritan
river....
