Hi,
I am trying to track down Edward Campbell and Sarah Walton. Edward came to VA from
Scotland - Glasgow area and married Sarah Walton (daughter of William Walton) in VA.
Sometime after that they moved WI in which they both passed away in the 1850s leaving
their children orphans. Their children moved back to VA to live with their grandparents,
the Waltons. Supposedly two of the children, John and Edward JR. fought for the South.
I am interested in finding more about Edward Campbell's time in VA and when he married
Sarah. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks,
Dawn

My great grandfather William Campbell claims in Census returns that he was
born in Newcastle upon Tyne circa 1822. He married Elizabeth Reid in
Nigg/Banchory Devenick, Kincardineshire in 1849 and died in Durris,
Kincardineshire in 1888 having been a farmer there for most of his working
life. Unfortunately the statutory record of his death does not record the
names of his parents. Can anyone suggest who his parents might be?
