This was one of the family questions that Iwas working upon when I went down. I truely
believe, note I did not say know, that these two line sare together. Certainly wish I had
my records at my fingertips.
However, what Ican dois later post all of the descendants down that I have from Jane and
Henry. Perhaps if we all work together we will be able to sovle this puzzle

Lilly,
There was a James Young Campbell married Sarah Carmack in 1810 in Washington
co, VA. I have seen they were married in Hawkins co, TN but the marriage
record is from Washington co, VA. Soon after their marriage they went to
Hawkins co, TN where Sarah Carmack Campbell died. James then moved his
family to Douglas and Vermillion co, IL where James died at his son's home.
Some of the Carmack's married into my Campbell family but I haven't figured
if these Carmack/Campbell's were related to my Carmack/Campbell's.
