Subject: Thomas Campbell, lived first half of 1700s
I am searching for information about Thomas Campbell, esp. identity of his
parents.
According to the "Compendium of American Genealogy" he was son of John, 2d
Duke of Argyll, graduated from U. of Glasgow, immigrated to America, married
Jane Davidson and lived about 1735 in Londonderry, NH. Present Duke of
Argyll denies that John had any sons, legitimate or otherwise. I have been
able to confirm that Thomas graduated from U. of Glasgow on 29 April 1724,
married Jane Davidson at Billerica, MA, on 3 May 1733, and bought land in
Londonderry, NH, on 13 August 1734. He had a son, Hugh Argyle Campbell
(1744-1810), and perhaps sons John and Nathaniel. If you have any
information about Thomas Campbell please send it to me. If you want
information about Hugh Argyle Campbell or his descendants (I am one) I can
send it to you.
