One of the saddest parts of Campbell research is that there were SO MANY
Campbell families in PA and OH that weren't connected! It makes for a very
frustrating journey!

Allen (and Darlene) my Campbells were "scattered all over
Western Pa and
Eastern Ohio. In my life time, most of the Campbells I have known
were in
Beaver County and some in Mercer County. SOme were also in Lawrence County
(at various times) but I'm not sure if I know of any living in Butler County
(specifically).
At one time, I was told that my Grandfather worked on a Streetcar in
Oil
city, Pa (Venango County) and he was buried in Grandview Cemetery in Beaver
Falls (Beaver County) PA. My Grandfather was reportedly born in Wellsville,
Ohio ( Columbiana County) December of 1864. His father, Joseph J. Campbell,
was reportedly born in Washington Township, Columbiana County Ohio in 1836.
I believe his father and mother were Samuel Campbell and Sarah Hunter
Campbell who were living in Salineville, Ohio during the 1850 Census Report.
I said "I believe" because I have been contacted by another "Campbell
Cousin" who ( for some reason I have not yet been made aware of) believes
that my Great Grandfather (Joseph J.) was actually not one of Samuel and
Sarah's children, but rather a "nephew" who happened to be
"staying" with
the family at the time of the Census. I do not know what evidence (if any)
he has on this.
After Samuel, my "trail goes cold". I can't seem to
find anything
about where he was born or who his parents were. I have been provided
some
info regarding a Samule that migrated from Tioga County to Warren County and
thence on to Columbiana County Ohio, but when I tried to tie the two
together, the dates and years of birth seemed too far off to be a
match....but who knows? They didn't keep real good records back then
apparently.
More info upon request. V/R Paul C.
