I have not been following this chain of messages, so forgive me if I give
information that is already out there or contrary to what is said. But it
looks like I have found the Virginia link to Lafayette Co, MO, in my
daughter's birth family.
My research shows that my daughter's Campbell birth family descends from
Aaron George Campbell (born 15 Mar 1775 in "Virginia", died 22 July 1851 in
Lafayette County, Missouri), My research shows that he was the son of Moses
Campbell #1.
Aaron George Campbell married Grace Williamson 17 March 1795, in Bedford
Co, VA. Aaron George Campbell died in Lafayette Co, MO, and is buried in
Campbell Cemetery, Odessa Rd, Lafayette Co, MO. They had 11 children
(James, Henry, Joshua, Elizabeth, Nancy, Caleb, Urban, Alexander, Joel,
Harriett, and Moses).
Grace Williamson was the daughter of James Williamson and Elizabeth Hall
of Bedford Co, VA. Grace died about 1833 in Logan Co, KY. The family went
on to Lafayette Co, MO.
Moses Campbell, son of Aaron George Campbell and Grace Williamson, was
born abt 1820 (probably in Logan Co, KY) and married Martha Ann Eagan,
daughter of John Eagan and Margaret J. Wray.
John Eagan was born abt 1795 in Washington Co, TN, and died Feb 1855 in
Lafayette Co, MO. He was probably the son of Barnabas S. Eagan, Jr, of
Augusta Co, VA.
John Eagan and Margaret J. Wray's daughter Susannah Eagan (born 11 Sep
1818 in TN, died 27 Dec 1893, in Johnson Co, MO) married Andrew B. ("Andy")
Grainger.
Andrew (Andy) Grainger's sister was Melvina C. Grainger (born 11 Aug
1816 in Sumner Co, TN, died 2 Nov 1893 in Lafayette Co, MO). Melvina
married John M. (or N.) Campbell, who was listed on various records as "born
2 Jan 1800 in North Carolina." This John Campbell and Melvina had 6
children (Andrew, Elizabeth, Thomas W., William, Neal Smith, and Sarah.
My daughter's birth ggg grandfather, Thomas W. Campbell, son of Melvina
and John Campbell, was born about 1847 in Lafayette Co, MO, and died about
1893 in Humboldt Co, NV. Thomas W. Campbell married Adeline George,
daughter of Isaiah Henderson George of Loudoun Co, VA and Sarah Frances
Leach of Jefferson Co, VA. Thomas W. Campbell rode with Quantrill's Raiders
and left Missouri "one step ahead of the law." He and wife Adeline settled
in Humboldt Co, NV and had 2 children, Aubrey Forrest Campbell (from whom my
daughter is descended) and Claude Franklin Campbell.

To any who are interested.
There were 2 Moses Campbells in Bedford County, they were father and son.
They are found in Amherst personal property tax records in 1787 as Moses
Campbell with sons, Moses, James and Aaron. They appear in Bedford County
tax records in 1789.VERY WELL, ONE Moses Campbell, Sr born in 1740 , Moses
Campbell, JR. born in Bedford County Va. in 1764. This is in your records &
nethier of these two MOSES Campbell's could have been the MOSES CAMPBELL
from AMHERST COUNTY WHO DID NOT ENTER BEDFORD COUNTY VIRGINIA untill 1789,
THERE FORE THERE WAS FOR SURE 3 MOSES CAMPBELL'S; MOSES # one; bORN IN
BEDFORD COUNTY IN 1740 # 2 MOSES CAMPBELL JR; BORN IN BEDFORD 1764; # 3
AMHERST COUNTY MOSES CAMPBELL WHO DID NOT ENTER BEDFORD COUNTY VIRGINIA
UNTILL
1789
In 2012 an indepth analysis of Moses Campbell was done by Shirley Craft.
Her research indicated that Moses Campbell born about 1740 died in Bedford
County in 1792. In that same year his son, Moses Campbell married Mary
Dooley. This is also supported by research that I performed in Bedford
County
tax and will records. A note here: Shirley's research also confirms that
Lucy who married John Cash was daughter of Moses and Jene Campbell <,OK,
MOSEES Campbell, SR. BORN IN 1740 THEN MOSES CAMPBELL, JR. BORN IN 1764 IN
BEDFORD COUNTY VA<YOUR TWO MOSES CAMPBELL'S> NOW IN 1789 AMHERST COUNTY,
MOSES CAMPBELL; THE KNOWN FATHER OF LUCY CAMPBELL WHO MARRIED JOHN CASH &
HAD
RAISED HIS FAMILY IN AMHERST COUNTY VA. AS HAS BEEN RECOREDED, THEN THAT
PROVES THAT THERE HAD TO BE THREE MOSES CAMPBELL'STHE SAME MAN COULD NOT
RAISED A FAMILY IN BOTH AMHERST & BEDFORD COUNTIES AT THE SAME TIME ONE
MOSES CAMPBBELL RAISED LUCY CAMPBELL THAT DID MARY JOHN CASH IN AMHERST
COUNTY, VA WHILE THE MOSES CAMPBELL THAT WAS BORN IN BEDFORD COUNTY IN
1740
& STARTED HIS FAMILY IN BEDFORD COUNTY IN 1764 THIS IS THE INFORMATION
THAT HAS COME FROM YOUR POST'S WITH OUT QUESTION, AMHERRST CONTY MOSES
CAMPBELL IS ANOTHER MOSES CAMPBELL CUZ AT
I have corresponded with Ms. Morrison and offer her family line which was
handwritten by her aunt (who lived to be 97). In her message she also
states: " I HAVE A PRINTOUT OF DESCENDANTS OF MOSES CAMPBELL B. 1740 D.
1792,
MARRIED TO JENE? (1744-1792), WHICH IS THE MOSES CAMPBELL IN OUR FAMILY
LINE."
So no matter what spin anyone puts on this information, Ms. Morrison
clearly states that she is descended from Moses Campbell and Jene, he dying
in
Bedford County in 1792.
So, yes there were 2 Moses Campbells in Bedford County, father and son.
