Try looking in the 1920 census listing him as a child in PA then you also
find his parents. Also send to the State Vital Records for a copy of his
birth certificate, and if you know where he died send for a death
certificate, both would list his parents.

Subject: tracing back, roadblock
hello I'm John Martin Campbell, son of Frank Martin Campbell, so
of
Martin Philetus Campbell. I'm trying to find a history for my family
but that's as far as I can go back. I know Martin Philetus had 4 or 5
brothers, two of which are Larry and Buster Campbell, who were one of
the first country western bands to play on KDKA in the area around
Indiana/johnstown, PA.
Martin Philetus was born on the 4th day of October in 1910 in Boston,
PA and died on the 28th of March in 1945.
I was wondeirng if anyone could help me go back any further, that's
where I get stuck.
thank you all.
