Dear Cecil and all others interested in Amherst Co VA,
I will now attempt to identify these people listed here in the Tax list. I
will put name, date of birth, son of, and married to whom.
1. John Campbell b. 1750, s/o George and Caty, m. Frances
2. Frances Campbell b.1750, s/o ??, I feel this is the male name spelled
wrong, m. Isabell.
3. Moses Campbell b. abt 1730?, s/o ??, m. Jeane, moved to Bedford Co VA by
1789.
(this Moses Campbell is the line of Pat Carter, and she feels this is the
"Johnny Cash" line)
4. Moses Campbell b. abt 1772?, s/o Moses and Jeane, m. Mary Dooley
5. James Campbell b. abt 1778?, s/o Moses, m. Molly Patterson
6. Aron Campbell b. 3-15-1775, s/o Moses, m. Grace Williamson
7. Daniel Campbell (total mystery to me!)
8. Ambrose Campbell b. 1740 Scotland, s/o Henry and Charity, m. Margaret
9. Peter Campbell b. ??, s/o Ambrose, s/o Henry and Charity
10. James Campbell b. abt 1750, s/o ??, m. Mary Smith
11. George Campbell b. 1743, s/o George and Caty, m. Elizabeth
12. Samuel Campbell b. ??, s/o George and Caty, m. Christian Patterson
13. John Campbell (not sure???)
14. William Campbell b. 1754, s/o George and Caty, m. Sarah Goode
15. Henry Campbell b. 1764, s/o George and Caty, m. Sarah Wright
Now to the B list
1. John Campbell (not sure)
2. Laurence Campbell b. 1736 Scotland, s/o ??, m. Henrietta Catlett
3. Joel Campbell b. 1745-8 Scotland, s/o Henry and Charity, m. Elizabeth
Mills
4. Aaron Campbell b.???, the eldest son of Henry and Charity, m. ??
5. George Campbell Sr. b. abt 1720, s/o ??, m. Catherine, aka Caty.
6. John Campbell (not sure)
7. William Campbell (not sure)
Please, if anyone can further identify these people, or can correct my
mistakes, or have any comments, please reply to the list.
Also, please note that the descendants of George and Margaret Campbell:
John, Archibald, George, Edley, and Thomas do not appear to still be in the
area? All moved away?
Best regards,
