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.
