1.12.1.11 Jennet W. Campbell b. cr. 1841; m. Samuel E. Massie son of Edmund
and Lucinda L. (Denny) Massie. Samuel was b. 5/9/1842 and d. 1/1/5/1925.
1.12.2 William W. Campbell 72 yrs. On the 1860 Nelson Co. Census. He lives
at Massies Mill. "I believe he is the s/o Henry Campbell and Sarah Wright. He
would be the sibling of Catherine Campbell and John H. Campbell, both listed in
Nelson co 1860 census. " [4]
William W. Campbell b. 1788.
In the 1860 census at Nelson Co, this man is listed with a woman named Edithy
Campbell b. 1813 and a Jeno Ann Campbell b. 1841, who are these 2 women?
1.12.4 John H. Campbell
[4] says " I believe this is John H. Campbell b. 1789, (as established
by 2 census records, 1850 & 1860). s/o Henry Campbell and Sarah WRIGHT. Henry,
s/o George Campbell and Catherine (Caty). And died age age 71 per LDS record.
This John H. Campbell may have married Harriet B. Bryant 6-9-1848
Nelson Co, in the 1860 census this John H. Campbell has a younger woman and 2
children living with him. She is Arrana M. Campbell, b. 1827. Her father is said
to be Cornelius Campbell, but that is not confirmed, and is disputed by some.
Benjamin M. Campbell, the son Arrana, did marry Julia Ann Campbell, d/o George
T. Campbell b. 1824 and Eady B. WRIGHT. George and Eady are my ancestors. It
is possible that this John H. Campbell was NOT married to Arrana Campbell, but
she was only living with him, perhaps he was an older relative? If she is the
d/o Cornelius Campbell, then he was her mother's brother. " [4]
"I believe that on land records or in census record, when ever you see
the name JOHN H. CAMPBELL surrounded by Camden names as well, that will
identify this particular man. Because there was another man, also named JOHN
Campbell, also in Nelson Co, but I believe you will find his land, and his census
records, close to COFFEY names, in Nelson Co VA. Also, John H., s/o Henry, is 18
years YOUNGER than the other man named John Campbell. Additionally, I always
see the H. intial used on the younger man, so that might be one more way to
distinguish the 2 men, who are neighbors, but not related. The older man was John
Campbell married to Amelia Coffey. " [4]
"I think this man might be listed in the 1820 census at Nelson Co, and
possibly listed in 1830, 1840, and in the 1850 census at Nelson Co he is
definately listed. In the 1850 census is says he is 60 yrs old, and has a young
woman named Jrena Campbell, 22 yrs old, living with him. This lady is Arrena
Campbell b. 1829, and is the daughter of his sister Catherine Campbell, d/o Henry.
Catherine Campbell married Cornelius Campbell in 1816 in Nelson Co VA.
This Arrena (Irene?) was John H. Campbell's niece, did they marry and have 2
kids? Or did she have 2 kids with an unknown man, and she simply raised those
2 kids in the household of her Maternal Uncle? That is the question." [4]
"In the 1860 census, John H. Campbell 71 yrs, and Areena M. Campbell 33
yrs, are still listed together in the same house, and now she has 2 children
with them: Virginia M. Campbell b. 1851, and Benjamin M. Campbell b. 1853." [4]
They are living at Rose Mill, Nelson Co VA, next door to the house of
Catherine Campbell, widow of Cornelius, and next door to William H. Campbell b. 1818,
married to Martha (Mays).
"In the 1870 census, John H. Campbell is not listed (dead), I can not
find Arrena (Irene-Irena?) at all, I can not find her daughter Virginia, but by
then she would be 19 yrs old, and may have married by then, her son Benjamin
M. Campbell b. 1853 is living in with his Maternal Aunt, Sarah W. Campbell b.
1820, in Nelson Co VA."[4]
"Next clue: there is a marriage record for a John H. Campbell married to
Harriet B. Bryant 6-9-1848 Nelson Co VA. John would be 58 yrs old at that date,
this is possibly his second marriage, but I have no info for a first marriage
for him, so it could be his first, late, marriage. I feel that this marriage
'looks' like it should be him, and no one else. Possibly this Harriet Bryant
died between 1848 and 1850 census, and Arrana M. Campbell then appeared in the
household with John H. Campbell, in the 1850 census." [4]

George H. Campbell is in house 653 on 1850 Amh. Co. Census age 65, with
wife Mary age 65 daughter Elizabeth, age 50. They are between Benjamin
Campbell & Elizabeth Campbell.
1.12.7 Catherine Campbell, b. 1795, in 1816 she married Cornelius Campbell,
s/o George Campbell and Elizabeth, s/o George and Caty.
Cornelius Campbell died in 1840, and in the 1860 census Catherine
Campbell is listed as living next door to her older brother John H. Campbell at Rose
Mill, Nelson Co VA.
She has living with her a Sarah W. Campbell b. 1820, who is either her
daughter, or a widowed daughter in law.
They also have a young boy named George M. Campbell b. 1846. Is this
George M. Campbell the son of Sarah W. Campbell? Who is his father?
In the 1880 census there is a George M. Campbell listed in Nelson Co
married to a Margaret b. 1848, with kids: Cary Lee b. 1874, Thomas W. b. 1875,
Daniel W. b. 1877, and James B. b. 1879
This could also possibly be the G. M. Campbell, who in 1888 directory is
listed as an Undertaker at Rose Mill, VA. ARE THERE any RESEARCHERS out
there working on that family group???
Catherine and Cornelius Campbell are said to have the following
children:
Shannon D. Campbell 1.12.7.1
