Hi. My (limited) ancestry research does not correspond to the lineage described in your
note. It must be just a coincidence that I have a living aunt named Mary Jane Campbell,
born in 1945 in Danville, Illinois, USA. ScottCampbell.

Subject: Re: [Campbell] Campbells from Coll, Mull & Tiree - Y-DNA matches
Mr. Campbell: my 2x Great Grand mother is Mary Jane Campbell she was born about 1839 (not
sure where), she married William Worling October 23, 1860 in Cappagh County Tyrone. The
marriage record says her father is James Campbell, James died February 28 1879 in Cappagh,
County Tyrone. The PRONI record shows Mary Worling present at death. By any chance are
these Campbell's part of your research. I have had a very hard time finding anything
other than what I have above. Mary Jane and William had a son named John Worlin born April
25 1865 in Ballymamullen, Cappagh, county Tyrone. He moved to Mount Holly New Jersey about
1890. Any help you can provide would be very much appreciated. Thank you John Woods.

Hello listners,
The earliest proof of my Campbell family in space-time is the family of
Donald Campbell m Marrion Maclean, sons Malcolm, Murdoch, Neil and
dau Christian, head tenant in Toraston, Isle of Coll, 1776.
We have documented a lot on this family ... and proven descendants extended
at times to Scotland, Australia (TAS, VIC, QLD & WA), NZ, USA Louisiana
(McFee, Lee, ...), Arkinsas (Salsbury ...) & Halifax, Pictou Isl,
Whycocomagh, Cape Breton, Manitoba (Geekie & Oliver), St Paul's Island, ...
The very strong family tradition is that this family descended from the old
house of Barbreck ...
We now have 5 documented Y-DNA samples of members of this family on Kevin
Campbell's FTDNA Campbell Group -- no 137 in his study. There are samples
from descendents of two sons of Donald, thus establishing the Y-DNA values
for him back at least to the 1740s. Every documented descendant carries a
very distinguishing DYS 390 marker with a value of 27. This value seems very
rare amongst most populations and we are alone in this in Campbell study,
though others approach with a value of 26, some also from the Inner
Hebrides. Another included in the group is a very close match, though this
value is 26. He is proven to have come from Belfast, Ireland and arrived in
South Carolina, ... We also know that my gg grandfather Archibald Macarthur
Campbell vent to Virginia circa 1840 (en route after for Port Phillip,
Australia), visiting family there.
Colin Campbell was Neil (tacksman of Sunipol then Treshnish, Mull) eldest
son. He went to Van Dieman's Land (Tasmania) in 1820, later settled near
Keilor, Port Phillip, and finally returned to Scotland in 1852, and
purchased the former Argyll properties on the Isle of Coll (Cornaig &
Caolas/Isle of Gunna) that had inherited by his two cousins, John, son of
Malcolm and Alexander, son of Murdoch. He also bought (and built the stately
home?) of Achnacloich, near Oban, Lorn on his return.
He clearly had ties with the then Duke of Argyll and was involved in efforts
to resettle "starving highlanders" to Canada and Australia, as these notices
indicate:

The Melbourne Argus, Victoria, Australia, Tue 27 July 1847
"Highland Destitution - Private letters from Scotland mention that Colin
Campbell, Esq, of Glengyle, on the Salt Water River, who is at present
absent on a visit to his native country, has been deputed by the Marquess
of Lorne, the representative of the noble house of Argyll,
to proceed to Canada for the purpose of making arrangements there for the
rescue of the starving Highlanders of Scotland from otherwise certain
death."

Port Philip Gazette and Settler’s Journal, Victoria, Australia, Sat 4 Dec
1847
"Emigration - We stated sometime ago that Mr. Colin Campbell, of this place,
intended to go out to Canada in charge of a number of the Duke of Argyle's
tenantry, but by later advices we have been informed that the scheme was
abandoned, in consequence of accounts having been received that the
emigrants in Canada were as bad off as the poor at home.
Mr. Colin Campbell had urged the Duke to send them to Port Philip instead,
which will we expect be the ultimate result."
If anyone out there recognizes or wants to know more of this family, please
