Hi Robert,
Thanks, I did think that you just didn't know what had progressed in the DNA
Conversation that someone else started.
I didn't know a lot about DNA as a matter of tracing ancestors from those
days.
As I said earlier my Last ancestor named Campbell was Lady Isabel Campbell b.
b 1499 and Her father Archibald Campbell, 2nd Earl of Argyll b. before 1478,
d. 9 September 1513. I

As you may know the connection that exists to the Kings of Scotland for
those Campbell's that were born after Sir Duncan Campbell, 1st Lord Campbell was
as a result of the children born to Sir Duncan and Lady Marjorie Stewart
Lady Marjorie Stewart was born before 1380. She was the daughter of Robert
Stewart, 1st Duke of Albany and Margaret Graham, Countess of Menteith.
She married Sir Duncan Campbell, 1st Lord Campbell, son of Sir Colin
Campbell of Lochow and Mariot Campbell. She died before August 1432.
Lady Marjorie Stewart was also known as Marceline Stewart. Her married name
became Campbell.
I descend from this line on the Campbell side. I also descend from Robert I
Bruce and his descendents that were as a result of the child born to Lady
Marjorie Bruce and Sir Walter Stewart, Robert I Stewart through several Marriages
to Stewart descendants by Many Agnew of Lochnaw Males from the mid 1400's
until the 1600's when Sir Patrick Agnew married a Campbell descendant When he
married Margaret Kennedy whose Kennedy Grandfather was a Bruce-Stewart descendant
before he married the Bruce-Stewart-Campbell descendent.
It seems that in those days Stewart, Agnew, Kennedy, Campbell, Vaux Married
each other. Or maybe I should say that a lot of Agnew men married these. I am
very proud of the Campbell ancestors I have. Of course all these men were
Knights when a Knight meant something.
The Agnew men of those days fought and stood with the Bruce Family and then
the Stewart Family and they were rewarded for their efforts. It was not a cake
walk but they lived and died on the battlefield. We know that the Campbell
men fought as well. My Last Campbell male ancestor, Archibald Campbell, 2nd
Earl of Argyll, died at Flodden on the battlefield in 1513. The way the
Campbell men stood with Robert the Bruce is history as well.
It seems that for the most part the Bruce's, Stewart's Campbell's, Agnew's
and Kennedy's stood with Scotland and each other.
By the way, the name Lee was well used in my American Family. My Middle name
is Lee, My son's is Lee, His daughter's middle name is Lea, My Father's was
Lee and many other family members as well.
Thanks,
Jimmie
