This is not the Elias related to my husbands family...but... I did a quick
census search:
1850 Marlboro county SC federal census film # M432_856
Page 322 (stamped page 162) dated Sept 12th 1850
Dweling 585, family 585, lines 33-40
Elias Campbell 38, male, Carriagemaker, b NY (no property value)
Annis 32 or 37 (my guess is 32), female, b SC
Elizabeth 6, female, b SC
James 4, male, b SC
Joseph 2, male, b SC
Sara 5/12 (five months old), female, b SC
Sarah Britton 57, female, b SC, real estate 350.00 (so they lived on her
property)
Elizabeth Britton 38 female, b SC
Are you sure your guys wife was a Pearson by birth? Could she have been
married before?
No Pearsons around, but another Campbell on the prior page:
Page 321 (stamped page 161)
Dwelling 576, Family 576, lines 34-37
A. D. Campbell 34, m, b NC, Presb. O.S. Minister (real estate valued at
6,000)
Margaret L. 26,female, b NC
Emily M 10/12 (10 mos old) female, b SC
Angus Munroe 30, male b NC, Overseer.
Your Elias was not in Choctow county AL in 1860... nor did he show on 1860
for any state... but that is not unusual, I don't think all the states have
been indexed (online index) at Ancestry yet.

Dear Margie, I was reading your web site and find it interesting, however
I think that I'm from a different Elias Campbell who was living in Marlboro
county, South Carolina in the 1850's born in New York , married Annice
Pearson, moved to Choctow county, Alabama died in 1868. If you have anything
on my g-g-great granpa please let me know. My email is piper123(a)gte.net.
Thanks for your time. your fellow kinsman, Ken Campbell
