Columbia county NY formed in 1786 from Albany county NY
Now...you have limited yourself to going no further back than 1786, is that
what you really want?
Albany co NY formed as one of the original shires. I don't have time to
list all the changes...but will tell you that the following were all at one
time part of Albany co NY prior to 1786:
Montgomery
Washington
Ulster
Columbia
You really need to include the above to find information on your Campbell's
prior to 1786.
That said...
Name Residence (City,County,State) Year
John Campbell -Canaan, Columbia, New York 1810 (one male under 10, male
26-44, female 16-25)
John Campbell -Kinderhook, Columbia, New York 1810 (two males 10-15, three
males 16-25, one male 45 and over, two females under 10, one female 16-25,
one female 45 and over)
John Campble -Canaan, Columbia, New York 1810 (one male under 10, one male
16-25, one male 26-44, one female under 10, one female 26-44)
Do understand, that in 1810, there are at least 14 other counties that you
need to consider in looking for John Campbell of Columbia county NY, and by
limiting yourself to one county...you are most likely building yourself a
huge brick wall.
Hope this tidbit helps in your research.
