Message Board Post:
I called John Campbell and he is going to talk to his wife because she has done some
extensive family history. So, hopefully, they will pass it on themselves to you. John is
John W. Campbell. His grandfather was Horace Peter Campbell. There was a John W.
Campbell in his family, possibly a brother. He said his family came here in 1905 from the
San Jose-Oakland California area. His father was a machinist who started a foundry here
and then they also were in the car selling business way back when. John's wife,
Theresa, is a member of the Mormon religion and she is the one who has done the Campbell
family history, so he said he will talk to her after she gets home from work tonight and
then call me back. Hopefully, I was able help and I hope this is the Campbell family you
are related to. Keep in mind, however, that back then there were, I think, about
20,000-30,000 people here, compared to 2000-3000 now. Is you hot mail address with the
space after Roger?
