Does anyone have any information on David Campau? He was born in Canada, in about 1843.
He served in tthe Union Army during the Civil War (joined when he was about 15 years old
by lying about his age). He married Stella Barney in Marquette, Michigan - she died 17
years before him in 1906. David Campau died in Brooklyn, on June 17th, 1923. His parents
were Eduard (sp?) and Katherine Campau. Katherine's maiden name was Katherine Le
Comte. David Campau was my maternal grandfather's maternal grandfather (my
great-great grandfather I believe). Any additional information you might have would be
greatly appreciated.
